Outbreak—Ebola

image: Photographer Seamus MurphyFor most photographers, "exposure" means light and shutter speed. But the term assumed a far more sinister aspect when photographer Seamus Murphy traveled to Gulu, Uganda, to cover the most recent Ebola outbreak.

In fall 2000, with danger quite literally in the air, Murphy and writer Tom Clynes chronicled the doctors and scientists who risked their lives to stop the spread of the disease. Murphy's award-winning coverage is featured in the May/June 2001 issue of Adventure in "Dangerous Medicine" (preview) and in this gallery of online-only photos.
