This paper represents the findings of research carried out into the information-seeking behaviour, and information requirements, of a small sample of international workers stationed in West Africa during the Zaire Ebola virus oubreak of 2014-15. The research study under which these results were obtained was part of exploratory research for a PhD focused on the use, and potential uses, of social media platforms during serious disease outbreaks that might be used to inform policy planning for public health and emergency response interventions. Thus, the findings in this study may provide valuable insights to business continuity managers and emergency planners in making future decisions about information exchange and crisis decision-making during future serious disease outbreaks
