Unfortunately for Ashoka Mukpo, a freelance cameraman, he contracted Ebola while working with NBC in Liberia to spread the word about thay same disease. He was transported to the biocontainment center of the Nebraska Medical Center on October 16 to recieve treatment. On October 21 he happily tweeted,"Just got my results. 3 consecutive days negative. Ebola free and feeling so blessed. I fought and won, with lots of help. Amazing feeling." Though Mukpo could not pinpoint exactly how he became infected, he did not regret going to Liberia to help spread the word of the impact of Enola on West Africa.
