Evening Edition: Could Ebola Spread To The United States?

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a growing Ebola outbreak in Central Africa as an international public health emergency sparking concerns the deadly virus could spread beyond the region, including into the United States. The outbreak has been linked to dozens of suspected deaths in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and neighboring Uganda. Ebola is a zoonotic, viral disease that is rare but life-threatening, starting in species like antelope, fruit bats and nonhuman primates.
