Ebola War - The Nurses of Gulu tells the story of Ugandan nurses who volunteered to combat Uganda’s first Ebola outbreak in October 2000. An international team of medical professionals, including Canadian doctor Bonnie Henry, was also sent to Uganda to help contain the outbreak. Complicating the situation was Uganda’s 15-year-old war with northern-based rebels. Despite the deaths of their colleagues, discrimination and inadequate medical supplies, the nurses persevered, saving hundreds, if not thousands, of lives.
