c.d.c. emergency operation center at level one for this outbreak. this is our highest level of response. it doesn't mean there's an increased risk to americans, but it does mean we are taking an extensive effort to do everything we can to stop the outbreaks. we can't do it alone. there are many partners throughout the u.s. government who are working with, the world health organization, the world bank, governments around the world as well as most importantly people in-country will be key to stopping the outbreak. we will send, as i have said, at least 50 staff to the region within the next week or two, actually, we will reach that 50 number. but i think it's important to understand that the 50 in-country are supported at our home base in atlanta by a much larger group. as of today, even before the full surge and activation, we have more than 200 staff working on this outbreak response and we will increase that number substantially in the coming days and weeks. you'll hear more about the work
