Kathy West, a noted fire and EMS infection control expert, developed a down and dirty fact sheet on Ebola and EV-D58, which has been posted on the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) Ebola resource webpage. 

The IAFC's resource webpage also includes a link to an Ebola Symptoms Checklist from the CDC for EMS use in screening patients for this deadly disease.
