PRODUCT SUMMARY


NOVA travels to the quarantined city of Kikwit in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to witness the battle against the Ebola virus, one of the world's most lethal diseases. The virus was first identified there in 1995. It often kills by dissolving victims' internal organs and connective tissue. Watch how disease specialists traced the origins of the Ebola outbreak by compiling a "chain of death" of the epidemic.
