The latest numbers from CDC show more than 20,000 people in West Africa have been sick with Ebola, and more than 8,000 have died. As Dr. Tom Frieden explains, some areas may be starting to see a decrease in cases, but that does not mean the fight is over. CDC will continue its work in West Africa until we get to zero new cases, To hear more, listen to the latest CDC podcast.

CERC Corner
In the chaos of an emergency, you will need to start communication activities as soon as possible (remember: Be first. Be Right, Be credible.). It may seem daunting to decide where to begin, especially if you have never been involved in a public health response before. It is particularly difficult when you need to develop and test brand new communication tools. That’s why CDC has provided Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication (CERC) templates and tools that can be adapted and used when you need it. To download the available CERC tools, visit http://emergency.cdc.
