Description

The 2014 Ebola outbreak, which has affected several countries in West Africa, is the largest in history. The three countries most affected by the outbreak - Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone -have reported almost 25,000 cases as of March 2015. In response to the urgent need for Ebola treatment beds, several facilities were reconfigured to admit, isolate, and treat patients. Many such facilities were constructed in existing hospitals, schools or buildings that provided other functions prior to the outbreak. New facilities were also constructed to deal with the epidemic
