In Liberia, several conditions facilitated the spread of Ebola, including inadequate healthcare infrastructure, which limited access to medical care and prevented effective outbreak response. Cultural practices, such as traditional burial rituals involving close contact with the deceased, significantly increased transmission rates. Additionally, widespread poverty and limited public awareness about the disease contributed to the rapid spread, as many people were unaware of how the virus was transmitted or how to protect themselves.
