Ebola: Past, Present, Future
Episode 5, Jan 29, 2020, 06:46 PM
Welcome to Contagion® Connect. This podcast will bring you expert perspectives on trending infectious disease topics.
First, we'll speak to John Johnson, project lead for Ebola vaccination in the Democratic Republic of the Congo with Médecins Sans Frontières France, for a perspective on how the new availability of vaccines has shaped the response to the ongoing epidemic compared to the West African Ebola outbreak.
Then, we'll speak with microbiologist Jason Kindrachuk, PhD, about his experience in Liberia during the West African epidemic. Kindrachuk is also an expert on current research pertaining to lasting effects in Ebola survivors, so we'll speak to him for a clinical perspective on what the future holds for those who survive the disease.
A transcript of the interview is available on Contagionlive.com
