It is the sense of Congress that— the current outbreak of the Ebola virus disease in West Africa poses severe health, economic, and security threats to the countries affected by the outbreak of the Ebola virus disease, the United States, and the broader international community; and the whole-of-government response taken by the United States provides unique capabilities that are critical to effectively helping contain the Ebola virus disease in West Africa, yet the United States alone will not succeed in containing the Ebola virus disease.
