In
2014, the world avoided a horrific global outbreak of Ebola, thanks to
thousands of selfless health workers -- plus, frankly, thanks to some
very good luck. In hindsight, we know what we should have done better.
So, now's the time, Bill Gates suggests, to put all our good ideas into
practice, from scenario planning to vaccine research to health worker
training. As he says, "There's no need to panic ... but we need to get
going."
