全球需要更强有力的疾病监测、应对和预防系统。自2014年3月23日在西非发现埃博拉病毒病以来，疾病控制和预防中心（CDC）已采取该机构历史上最密集的应对措施;超过3，000名工作人员参与其中，其中包括部署到西非的1，200人，工作日超过50，000人。这些努力包括支持受影响国家的事件管理系统;动员合作伙伴;加强西非、尼日利亚、马里、塞内加尔和美国的实验室、流行病学、接触调查、卫生保健感染控制、通信和边境筛查。所有这些努力都是与许多伙伴组织一起开展的国家和全球应对活动的一部分。疾病预防控制中心能够支持社区，国家和国际卫生和公共卫生工作人员，以防止更严重的事件。埃博拉病毒疾病的流行突出表明，需要加强国家和国际系统，以发现、应对和预防未来健康威胁的传播。
Stronger systems are needed for disease surveillance, response, and prevention worldwide. Since Ebola virus disease was identified in West Africa on March 23, 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has undertaken the most intensive response in the agency’s history; >3,000 staff have been involved, including >1,200 deployed to West Africa for >50,000 person workdays. Efforts have included supporting incident management systems in affected countries; mobilizing partners; and strengthening laboratory, epidemiology, contact investigation, health care infection control, communication, and border screening in West Africa, Nigeria, Mali, Senegal, and the United States. All efforts were undertaken as part of national and global response activities with many partner organizations. CDC was able to support community, national, and international health and public health staff to prevent an even worse event. The Ebola virus disease epidemic highlights the need to strengthen national and international systems to detect, respond to, and prevent the spread of future health threats.
