The article is supported in three main ways

  1. A background on mental illnesses such as PTSD and MDD is presented drawn from information establised in other papers, studies, and previous research on disasters and mental health. 
  2. Personal stories and individual case studies of people suffering from severe disaster related mental illnesses were used to establish the relationship and causation between disaster exposure and mental illness
  3. Statistics and demographics were used to show which groups in particular were effected by mental illness in disaster scenarios.

The most compelling part of the film for me was the woman yelling at the side of the road about a pregnant woman that was sick and left behind by emergency responders that did not have the authority or equipment to handle the ebola patient. The fetus was still alive and moving, however, the ebola team came too late and the baby died along with its mother. This was compelling because it showed her dead on the side of the road and the woman screaming watched it happen. The baby could have been saved, but the understaffed ebola team could not get there in time.
