vaccine trial. building on the military hiv research program that had a presence in uganda for many years and collaborations in uh-uh ban da for many years we did the first human vaccine trial on the continent of africa starting back in 2008. those results were just published as well. they just finished enrolling in a second ebola vaccine trial in uganda and we are scheduled to start an ebola vaccine trial in nigeria. so i think this is a prime example and an exam particular of how the d.o.d. is very good at expeditionary medicine but more than, that expeditionary research and development and i think that's a unique characteristic of our organization. so that was the vaccine testing story. but we responded in other ways as well to support operation united assistance and support i do domestic ebola preparedness. this was a different operation than what other operational groups had been involved in before so it was important to provide them pre-deployment training so they understood what the threats a

how many kids in the california school system aren't vaccinated? >> reporter: so it's a small percentage of school children who are not vaccinated. but the concern is that it could be rising. over the past decade or so we've seen an increase in parents who are looking at ways to reduce or possibly change the way in which children receive their vacks nargses -- vaccinations. and the concern is there would be clusters of children where they don't reach what's called herd immunity where there aren't 95% of the population with the required vaccines which would make outbreaks more likely. >> sreenivasan: and where are these clusters or what do we know about them? >> so the clusters seem to be in places with either high educated population or those without -- below the poverty line. so it seems to go either -- in a situation where there aren't enough resources or where there are such resources that people are taking their own initiative not to vaccinate. >> sreenivasan: so if this law gets signed by governor brown, does this mean that if you have a -- if
