The biggest Ebola epidemic of all time crossed over from West Africa to the United States recently when a Liberian man infected with the disease came to visit family. That man has since passed away, and a nurse who cared for him was confirmed to have Ebola this weekend. Local officials say there is no cause for alarm, but the local West African community says there is a great need for support.
