The data publishing platform Silk has created a world map depicting the spread of the Ebola virus. The data-driven view includes detailed information of the epidemic’s history with data from the CDC and WHO. The current outbreak, which began in March, has resulted in 8,376 cases and 4,024 deaths. The death count far surpasses the number of deaths of all previous Ebola epidemics combined, Silk’s site says. The longest-recorded outbreak prior to the current one was in Gabon in 1996; it lasted seven months.”]
