Surviving Ebola

Unreported World provides a unique view of what life is like for the health workers battling Ebola in Sierra Leone and the families affected by the virus.

As the only television crew to spend two weeks embedded in field hospitals and quarantine units, reporter Shaunagh Connaire and director Wael Dabbous were in Sierra Leone at a critical phase when there was still a chance to contain the virus.

In the time they were there though it was clear the battle to contain it was being lost.

This Ebola outbreak has claimed nearly 2000 lives. The World Health Organization warns the virus could ultimately infect more than 20,000 people. Without the bravery and determination of those battling the virus, the figures would be far higher.
