Caption:
This photograph was captured by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) team member, and EIS Officer, Heidi Soeters, PhD, MPH, during Guinea’s 2014, Ebola outbreak, and depicts a fellow CDC staff-member, Environmental Health Scientists, Lindsey Horton, in the process of assisting a Guinean healthcare worker with her personal protective equipment (PPE), using a scissors to snip off a stray thread from the sleeve of her gown. Though the worker had donned her disposable gloves, she’d yet to apply the headgear that would complete her complement of PPE. This was all being conducted, as a teaching exercise, before these healthcare workers would be called to interact directly with Ebola patients.
