I know that Alaskans are concerned about Ebola. The chance of a case developing here in Alaska is low, but Ive still been following the situation closely and I got a briefing from the CDC just this morning. The CDC is increasing its ability to quickly and accurately screen potential cases and to have the systems and equipment in place to prevent transmissions. The CDC is also working closely with AK public health officials and our state lab in ANC to make sure the right testing protocols are being put into place. They are also providing prevention, identification and response guidance to hospitals and clinics. CDC officials confirmed that, if necessary, they could deploy a rapid response team to Alaska to manage any emerging situation. Make sure you have the facts about this Ebola and dont rely on rumors.
