U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is one of the major operating components of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. CDC works to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S. Whether diseases start at home or abroad, are chronic or acute, curable or preventable, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and supports communities and citizens to do the same. CDC increases the health security of the United States. As the nation’s health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects people from health threats. To accomplish its mission, CDC conducts critical science and provides health information that protects the nation against expensive and dangerous health threats, and responds when these arise.

      Estimate the daily movement of patients using disease probabilities for three (3) different categories of isolation: Hospitalization, Eff Home Isolation (i.e., at home or in a cmmunity setting such that there is a reduced risk of disease transmission including safe burial when needed), and No Home Isolation. We used probabilities, drawn from reports of previous Ebola outbreaks, to model the daily movement of patients between and within the various disease categories (i.e., susceptible, incubation, infectious, revocery/death).

Since then, the virus has emerged periodically and infected people in several African countries. Each of the known cases and outbreaks of EVD is described by year or country where the case was discovered or imported. Date Range: 1976-2021
