Description

In 2014, West African countries experienced the largest Ebola virus disease outbreak to date. As part of the Department of Homeland Securityäó»s (DHS) response to prevent the spread of Ebola in the U.S., DHS instituted additional screening at U.S. ports of entry for passengers traveling from Ebola-affected countries. This is the report of an audit conducted to determine whether DHS has effectively implemented its enhanced screening measures to respond to an Ebola outbreak. It found that although DHS reponded quickly to implement domestic Ebola screening with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), it did not ensure sufficient coordination, adequate, training, and consistent screening of people arriving at U.S. ports of entry. Includes recommendations. Figures. This is a print on demand report.
