FILE - In this Monday, Jan. 19, 2015 file photo, a healthcare worker, right, takes the temperatures of school children for signs of the Ebola virus before they enter their school in the city of Conakry, Guinea. People who survive Ebola might have a higher chance of dying in the first year after being released from the hospital, in a new study published Wednesday, Sept. 4, 2019 that suggests more should be done to monitor the health of survivors amid the outbreak in Congo. Doctors gathered information for more than 1,000 people hospitalized for Ebola in Guinea after the West Africa epidemic. They found Ebola survivors had up to a five times higher chance of dying in the first year after their release when compared to the general public. (AP Photo/Youssouf Bah, file)
