麻豆约拍

Owen Bennett-Jones is joined by a panel of the 麻豆约拍鈥檚 expert correspondents in West Africa and beyond for a special programme assessing the international response to Ebola in West Africa.

The disease that is causing so much fear and mourning in West Africa began to spread around a year ago. The world was slow to respond. Organisations that raised the alarm were accused of exaggerating the problem. The World Health Organisation failed to act and governments struggled to cope.

We discuss the response and whether the world is now better prepared for a future crisis with a panel of 麻豆约拍 correspondents: Global Health Correspondent Tulip Mazumder and Africa Correspondent, Andrew Harding, both just back from the region; International Development Correspondent Mark Doyle, in Ghana; Umaru Fofana in Freetown, Sierra Leone; Josephine Hazeley, Deputy Editor of the 麻豆约拍 Africa Service and Imogen Foulkes, the 麻豆约拍鈥檚 correspondent in Switzerland, where the World Health Organisation is based.
