Abstract
The unprecedented scale of the 2014-2015 Ebola virus outbreak in West Africa and the recent emergence and rapid spread of Zika virus infection and resultant neonatal sequelae show that the geographic range, spread, and effect of emerging infections are unpredictable. Lessons learned from analyzing the response of an academic medical center to care for pregnant women with suspected or confirmed Ebola virus disease can help health care professionals address future threats from emerging infections.
