Description:

While the U.S. was consumed with the mystery disease in Pennsylvania, a new challenge would soon emerge overseas. In October 1976, hemorrhagic fever emerged in the town of Yambuku in Zaire, now the Democratic Republic of Congo. Hemorrhagic fevers are often deadly, as they quickly damage many organs and the blood vessels, and this new disease proved to be especially severe. In the photograph displayed above, scientists are taking samples from local animals and insects in response to a later outbreak of the disease.
