New York Times: Ebola-Free, but Not Resilient
Judith Rodin, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, and Bernice Dahn, minister-designate of health for Liberia

“…A resilient health system combines active surveillance mechanisms, robust health care delivery system, and a vigorous response to disease. … When a resilient system is in place, cities and countries alike are prepared to yield what we call a ‘resilience dividend’ — benefits that are independent of crises. Building trust with the public, enhancing access to quality care, and investing in public health are all wise investments at any time, helping to increase productivity and growth. … One lesson from Ebola is clear: in a resilient health system, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Liberia not only reminds us of the necessity to create such a system, but also can help to show the path forward” (5/10).
