Disbelief, dysfunction, disaster: Congo’s Ebola outbreak
The Intelligence from The Economist 
About this episode
As aid workers battle the second-worst outbreak in history, they face violence and disbelief. A history of conflict, suspicion of the rich world and wild conspiracy theories make fighting a difficult battle far harder. Architects are tackling the dark, loud, violent nature of jails to make them more about rehabilitation than retribution. And, the increasingly absurd language of job adverts. <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
