Ebola-California-Preparedness

In this photo provided by the UCLA Health System, doctors and staff participate in a preparadness exercise on diagnosing and treating patients with Ebola virus symptoms, at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. The exercise was observed by Los Angeles County health department officials. UCLA’s multi-pronged approach includes protocols for transporting patients through the hospital, disposing of trash and waste, dedicating equipment — such as ventilators and X-ray machines — for Ebola patient use only, setting up a mobile laboratory, acquiring specialized personal protective equipment and staff training.
