Thousands of people died during the Ebola epidemic in West Africa, but as memories fade and concerns about future outbreaks of that magnitude subside, health care specialists say the danger is not completely over.

While the worst affected countries – Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone – have been declared free of the deadly virus, there have been some minor flare-ups.
・flare-ups – (in this case) a sudden outburst of, or increase in the symptoms of a disease or condition
：急激な再燃
“The virus can hang around in the bodies of people who’ve survived Ebola and can then be spread to other people and start new outbreaks… In fact there have been seven clusters of Ebola since the epidemic was controlled: three in Liberia, three in Sierra Leone and one that started in Guinea,” said Dr. Barb Marston of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, director of the CDC’s office for Ebola -affected countries.

Dr. Marston told VOA, “Our biggest focus in those three countries is on activities related to surveillance, laboratories and building human capacity. … Right now we have a team of between 50 and 60; that’s counting Americans who are permanently stationed in the three countries plus some locally employed staff and also some staff [from] CDC traveling there temporarily to assist.”
・surveillance：監視、監督、見張り
Cooperation across borders
This kind of cooperation has proven to be helpful in dealing with the latest minor outbreaks, says the CDC’s Liberia country director, Dr. Desmond Williams.

“In March we had a case again in a remote part in Guinea. One of the contacts from that family moved down to the capital city of Liberia, Monrovia,” Dr. Williams said. “But because the two governments were ready this time, we were able to limit that outbreak to 13 infected people and nine people dead.”
The number of health care workers in Liberia was already low before the epidemic, but the situation is worse now, since scores of medical staff died after contracting Ebola. Dr. Marston said health workers must feel safe at their workplaces, so they have to be able to protect themselves from the virus.
・scores– (in this case) very many
・contract：契約する、病気にかかる
Dr. Williams said another important lesson learned from the outbreak was the need to have community participation and support. He warns against the risks posed by bushmeat, meat from wild animals and birds, which was banned during the epidemic but is now back in the market place.

Affected countries and organizations around the world dedicated unprecedented resources to combat the deadliest outbreak in history. But continuing watchfulness for new infections, efficient and rapid tracing of all of an infected patient’s contacts, and good laboratory science are some of the main factors that are key to successfully controlling future outbreaks.
