The 2014 Ebola epidemic was the largest in history, affecting multiple countries in West Africa.

As of March 2016, MDHHS and Local Health Department partners successfully monitored 414 travelers with a recent travel history to West African countries in which there was an ongoing Ebola outbreak. None of the travelers exhibited any signs of Ebola infection during their 21 day monitoring period.

MDHHS continued monitoring the referred travelers until all national monitoring ended in December 2015.

Although the risk of an Ebola outbreak in the Michigan is very low, state and local partners continue to prepare and prevent this from happening.

MDHHS realizes that preparedness efforts for Ebola also provide support to prevent outbreaks of other special pathogens.
