Can Social Media Help Contain Ebola?

Patrick Sawyer, Nigeria's first Ebola patient, collapsed at the international airport in Lagos on July 20. This Wednesday, more than six weeks later, the World Health Organization (WHO) said that it was monitoring at least 200 Nigerians for infection related to Sawyer's case. Sawyer, a Liberian-American who had traveled from Monrovia, had carried the often-fatal disease to Africa's most populous country, hundreds of miles from its origin. It was as if he had slipped through a crowd.

Interest in Solar Water Heating Spreads Globally

Continue reading the main story
SAN FRANCISCO — To produce milk and cheese for the world, dairies need cows and grass. But they also go through enormous amounts of hot water each day to flush out milk lines and clean other equipment. And so farmers on King Island, part of the Australian state of Tasmania, were delighted when workers began installing solar arrays on their dairies’ rooftops to capture the energy of the harsh Australian sun and use it to heat water.

Ebola outbreak: call to send in military to west Africa to help curb epidemic

Military teams should be sent to west Africa immediately if there is to be any hope of controlling the Ebola epidemic, doctors on the frontline told the United Nations on Tuesday, painting a stark picture of health workers dying, patients left without care and infectious bodies lying in the streets.

The international president of Médecins sans Frontières (MSF), Dr Joanne Liu, told member states that although alarm bells had been ringing for six months, the response had been too little, too late and no amount of vaccinations and new drugs would be able to prevent the escalating disaster.

"Six months into the worst Ebola epidemic in history, the world is losing the battle to contain it," Liu said.

Paul,

We should be thinking about the implications of this in the NIST Community Resilience Center of Excellence. I would think that the Functional Needs Registry might seriously bump up against HIPAA regulations. That said, if a community's Resilience Network matched medical needs with the volunteer capabilities through Resilience Network's WE HAVE / WE NEED system, it could make a significant difference in addressing the needs of the medically underserved. The problem, of course, is who would pay for all of this?
