EbolaTracks: an automated SMS system for monitoring persons potentially exposed to Ebola virus disease

We report development and implementation of a short message service (SMS)-based system to facilitate active monitoring of persons potentially exposed to Ebola virus disease (EVD), whether returning from EVD-affected countries, or contacts of local cases, should they occur. The system solicits inform...
