The seventh most moving image of 2014 on Getty Images – as voted by the global public – is a photo by John Moore amidst Liberia’s battle against a spreading Ebola epidemic.
Umu Fambulle stands over her husband Ibrahim after he staggered and fell, knocking him unconscious in an Ebola ward on August 15, 2014 in Monrovia, Liberia. Photo taken by John Moore.
People suspected of contracting the Ebola virus were being sent by Liberian health workers to the center, a closed primary school originally built by USAID.
At the time the photo was taken, the Ebola epidemic had already killed more than 1,000 people in four West African countries.
