Training is Key in the Fight Against Ebola

Nearly 5,000 people worldwide have died in the recent Ebola outbreak.

Most of the victims are from countries in West Africa, where medical teams are in a race against time.

An American company sent a new vaccine there, which the World Health Organization will administer to 120 volunteers.
