The article does not say how the apps were funded but the mention of government programs for sexual assault prevention on college campuses suggests the government was involved in funding some of the apps.

The argument that health infrastructure was imperative in the prevention of outbreaks was very compelling. The first half of the film, while the virus was just beginning to spread emphasized that initially the hospitals were overwhelmed and forced to close because the resources and personnel needed were not available and no system was in place to deal with the number of cases. This supported the ending argument that Liberia needed more trained medical professionals, better infrastructure, and more health education.

The article has been referenced a few times since it was published, however the recent publication, lack of research being done on this topic, or the lack of definitive results from this paper have prevented it from being referenced extensively.

I looked into Underwriter Laboratories, as the work that they do is both interesting and important in mitigating future disasters.
The article did not give a definitive answer as to the decided cause of the towers collapse, so I researched the prominent theories. There still exists some controversy on the subject but it is largely believed that a combination of the direction the plane faced upon impact, which allowed the keel beam to destroy several support columns of the building, and the heat form the fire causing thermal expansion of the remaining steel reinforcements, overtaxed the supports which led to a systematic failure of supports on each lower floor.
Finally, I looked at the legal changes after 9/11 to see if there were any laws put into place defining the responsibility and authority of government agencies in the aftermath of a disaster. The laws passed directly in response to 9/11 however only seem to be relating to search, seizure, and detention of suspected terrorists.
Ethnography, at its best, provides a powerful and efficient way to read historical conditions.
