\nDeveloped by the CDC Museum in 2017, EBOLA: People + Public Health + Political Will <\/em>explores the history of Ebola in West Africa, 2014-2016, and how CDC, global partners, governments, organizations, and individuals came together to stop an epidemic.<\/p>\n Exploring the 2014-16 Ebola epidemic and the global response resonates today in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Challenges and lessons learned from Ebola echo in the current response, such as contact tracing, the importance of infection and prevention control, and training healthcare workers.<\/p>\n For further information, please contact Brennan Collins (brennan [at] gsu [dot] edu<\/a>) at GSU and Spencer Roberts (swroberts [at] emory [dot] edu<\/a>) at Emory.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Georgia State University and Emory University, in collaboration with the David J.
