FRONTLINE spent months on the ground in West Africa, tracing the Ebola outbreak’s path through Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia in 2014 and 2015 and uncovering the hidden story of what happened before the world started paying attention. The documentary shared firsthand accounts from survivors and victims’ family members — from the forest region of Guinea to the bustling Liberian capital of Monrovia — including the father of a one-year-old Guinean child who was believed to be the first person to die in the outbreak.
With access to key global and local decision-makers and health responders, “Outbreak” exposed tragic missteps in the response to what would become the deadliest Ebola outbreak that the world had ever experienced. The documentary drew on revelatory and candid admissions of failure from key government and public health officials, some of whom were speaking publicly for the first time. The investigation raised prescient questions about whether governments and global health organizations had the capacity to respond at the right scale the next time the world faced a major infectious epidemic.
