The BBC interviewed Dr. Anne Rimoin, professor in the Department of Epidemiology and the Gordon–Levin Endowed Chair in Infectious Diseases and Public Health, about the status of the current Ebola outbreak in Central Africa, including an announcement by Ugandan authorities that the outbreak is over in that country.
“This is good news that they've been able to keep this virus from spreading right now, but it's not time just to say, 'Okay, well, we're done. We don't have any Ebola here,’ ” said UCLA Fielding’s Dr. Anne Rimoin. “This is something that could very easily continue to spread.”
