Emergency response isn't really addressed to the degree of the disaster discussed last week. The response discussed in this article isn't about immediate emergency response, triage or even fallout aftermath. The response discussed in this article was more about the analysis of social parameters on the spread of disease. The response in this case would be the need to better address these social influences on the spread of disease in certain populations.

This film appeals to the viewers from an emotional aspect. The documentary follows a family and is told from the father's perspective, a student from Wisconsin. It shows a first person experience of what it was like to deal with this situation and the climate and magnitude of the situation in Liberia. The documentary isn't scientific or statistics heavy. Rather it has testimony from natives of the area and footage of bodies and the lack of hospital effectiveness and government protocol. The stories and narratives from locals is what really captures the attention of viewers and accurately portrays the hardships faced. There were a few parts at the end where numbers of those infected were mentioned, yet the the narrator's account of what occurred as well as other local's stories is what really drives home the point of anguish and despair seen during those hard times in Africa.
"Although violence directly affecting health service delivery in complex security environments has received a great deal of media attention, there is very little publically available research, particu- larly peer-reviewed, original research."
"Overall, it is important to understand the perspectives of per- petrators in order to find solutions that enable effective delivery of health services "
"Key challenges in addressing violence affecting health service delivery in complex security environments include a lack of health- specific, accessible and comparable, gender-disaggregated data and sufficient data on perpetrator motives. "
"According to workshop participants, in some cases the lack of gender-disaggregated data may be partly due to attempts to protect the confidentiality of victims. "

I researched the current law and statues on immigration and health care/illness in other countries aside from France. I wanted to be able to understand how France's policies compared to our own, as well as America's policies versus other countries. I also researched the immigration protocols in France, both going and coming. Along with this, I also wanted to learn more about their current healthcare system, what they can offer, how advanced they are and compare it to America, to help put it into context. I also wanted to research how their health system works, as well as any protocols they follow in terms of public health.
