A decade after the World Health Organization officially declared an end to the Ebola pandemic in Liberia and Sierra Leone, another outbreak is occurring in the DRC and Uganda. But little is known about how survivors of the Liberia and Sierra Leone outbreak have coped over the last 10 years. Many survivors live in worse conditions than before the epidemic and have been unable to return to their normal lives. Kevin J.A. Thomas argues that learning about their experiences can prevent these problems from occurring among survivors of current and future epidemics.
