Summary/Abstract

The first victim of the Ebola epidemic in West Africa was almost certainly a 2-year-old boy in the small village of Meliandou in south-eastern Guinea. Since his death in December 2013, the disease--whose previous outbreaks killed at most hundreds of people, and generally in rural areas--has infected thousands of people across West Africa, as well as a handful of people around the world, due to porous borders, ill-equipped health systems, and a faulty international response. The virus has drawn comparisons to one of history's greatest biological killers: the plague, which killed tens of millions of people from China to Europe in the "Black Death" of the 14th century.
