No doubt, a vaccine in 2–3 months is incredible, but still, the clinical record layer to actually deploy it is the part nobody's funding or having conversations about. If I recall correctly, Bundibugyo hasn't been seen for over a decade, which implies that frontline staff are pattern-matching from memory, not records and even if there are records, it's definitely scanty.

Over the years, we keep building the visible half of the response and ignoring the half underneath it. Not sure how much of the 2007 Uganda and the 2012 DRC was documented digitally, but well, I just had to put it out there.
