Summary edit

Description
English: This historic 1997 photograph was created during an investigation into an outbreak of monkeypox, which took place in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), 1996 to 1997, formerly Zaire. Though never used, this Guila Air cargo plane had been contracted by American zoologist, Delphi Messinger. In February 1997, 88 cases of a febrile, pustular rash had been identified over the previous 12-months, in 12 villages, within this Katako-Kombe Health Zone, DRC. PHIL images 12745 through 12784, depict a full slide presentation telling the story of this investigation.
