Ebola is not the only emergency
The current Ebola outbreak should not be viewed in isolation. It is being met by a healthcare system that has already been pushed to its limits by years of conflict, forced displacement and chronic underfinancing. In order to successfully contain Ebola, we will have to fight much more than a virus.
