Ebola lies in wait in the heart of the African equatorial jungle, spreading out now and then to spark horrifying epidemics. There is no vaccine to prevent it, nor disease specific treatment. Scientists' biggest fear is that the virus will one day strike a large urban center, where it would spread and could be carried out to the rest of the world.

Debate with :

• Frédéric Brunnquell, director
