What Paul Farmer told me once:
"People, when they are sick, are not looking to be sprayed, controlled, counselled, told about bush meat...they are looking to survive, and when they see the quality of care is not good, they are going to flee...
Control without care is what amplified Ebola epidemic"
“the only durable answer is to invest in African institutions themselves: frontline surveillance, outbreak response, and local
manufacturing of vaccines, therapeutics,
and protective equipment”

It was a pleasure to contribute a chapter, "Caring for Chimps as Viral Kin," on the complex relations of care and unequal relations of exchange that developed at Vilab II in Liberia, for this great volume! Open access is available @ www.jstor.org/content/oa_b...
