[US CDC Calls for Staff Volunteers for Airport Ebola Screening] As the deadly Ebola outbreak continues to escalate in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is recruiting volunteers from its staff to assist with Ebola screening at domestic airports. The CDC aims to expand its screening capacity for international travelers and has prioritized mobilization of "CDC Ready Responders" for this airport screening effort. The screening process will include brief questionnaires and temperature checks for passengers; those exhibiting symptoms will undergo further evaluation to determine if they may have Ebola.
