The Ebola epidemic in West Africa began in December 2013, with the first cases reported in Guinea. However, it was officially declared an epidemic in March 2014 when the virus spread to neighboring countries, including Liberia and Sierra Leone. The outbreak became one of the largest and deadliest in history, significantly impacting the region until it was declared over in 2016.
The United States experienced an outbreak of Ebola in 2014, primarily linked to the West African Ebola epidemic. The first confirmed case in the U.S. was reported in September 2014, involving a man who traveled from Liberia to Dallas, Texas.

Ebola would be an epidemic. The difference between a pandemic and an epidemic is the population size and locality of infection.

A pandemic is when the epidemic reaches to world wide proportions.
One of the most significant diseases that caused a major epidemic in Africa is Ebola virus disease. The Ebola outbreak that began in West Africa in 2014 resulted in thousands of deaths and had a profound impact on the healthcare systems and economies of the affected countries. Another notable disease is HIV/AIDS, which has led to a prolonged epidemic across the continent, affecting millions of lives and prompting extensive public health responses. Both diseases highlight the challenges of disease control and prevention in the region.
