dc.description.abstractPoor health systems and structures in countries affected by Ebola virus disease (EVD) have compounded difficulties in access to hospital care for Ebola patients. With this low healthcare access, individuals may be forced to seek alternative remedies for the management of EVD. One major study suggested that the transfusion of whole blood and serum from patients who had recovered from EVD reduces the risk of EVD-related fatality (Citation1), with additional rigorous studies underway including patients in the current epidemic in West Africa (Citation2–Citation4) .
