病例管理中心（cmc）是埃博拉病毒病（EVD）暴发控制计划的一部分。塞拉利昂的一家医疗中心有33%（138/419）的初次入院者出院时为埃博拉病毒病阴性（无一例）。其中15人在21天内再次入院，其中9人呈埃博拉病毒病阳性。所有再入院患者均在过去21天内与社区中的埃博拉病例有过接触，这表明该感染可能是在中心以外获得的。
Case management centres (CMCs) are part of the outbreak control plan for Ebola virus disease (EVD). A CMC in Sierra Leone had 33% (138/419) of primary admissions discharged as EVD negative (not a case). Fifteen of these were readmitted within 21 days, nine of which were EVD positive. All readmissions had contact with an Ebola case in the community in the previous 21 days indicating that the infection was likely acquired outside the CMC.
