Constructed 15 Ebola treatment units in the region
Provided more than 400 metric tons of personal protective equipment and other medical and relief supplies
Operated more than 190 burial teams in the region
Conducted aggressive contact tracing to identify chains of transmission
Trained health care workers and conducted community outreach
Worked with international partners to identify travelers who may have Ebola before they leave the region"
