The Current Mental Health Status of Ebola Survivors in Western Africa.

Sankalp Yadav1, Gautam Rawal2.   

Abstract

The epidemic of Ebola virus disease has claimed many lives. The impact of this disease is evident in the mental health of the survivors. The mere drafting of policies will not help; rather execution at the ground level is essential. There is an urgent need, to focus on the ways by which the sufferings should be reduced. The present article throws light on this grave problem in Africa.
