Zusammenfassung:During the 2014-2016 Ebola outbreak in Liberia health services collapsed due to chronic under-investment and the scale of the emergency. Healthcare facilities eventually re-opened upon improvement of infection prevention and control practices (IPC) to prevent Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) transmission within their doors. This data set was gathered shortly after the opening of one hospital in Monrovia in January 2015 while the outbreak was still in progres. The data was gathered to assess effectiveness of initial screening for EVD during triage to identify possible EVD cases. The data includes results from initial screening with results from re-screens after a patient was admitted.
