This book provides a timely examination of the Ebola pandemic in
Sierra Leone from four different standpoints: 1) a social
standpoint that focuses on the way in which the vulnerable Sierra
Leonian population viewed the pandemic in light of their cultural
beliefs, memories of past wars and narratives and actions of the
government; 2) a good governance standpoint that exposes lapses in
health governance and the general unpreparedness of the government
and international community to deal with the outbreak; 3) a
scientific research standpoint that looks at the role played by the
Sierra Leone's Lassa Fever Research Laboratories as a main hub for
the investigation, monitoring and evaluation of communicable
diseases in the Mano River Union countries; and 4) an international
politics standpoint that examines the development of a new
bio-security international apparatus involving a wide range of
international actors and institutions.
