Baton Rouge, LA - The Southern University Agricultural
Research and Extension Center is making it easier for the clients in its 64-parish
area to access information about the Ebola Virus Disease.
The Center has launched a page on its
website with up to date information from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention on the transmission, signs and symptoms and prevention methods for
the virus.
“With three Ebola infections in our
neighboring state of Texas, it is paramount that the Southern University Ag
Center provides the citizens of Louisiana with the information they need to
make informed decisions about the virus and take note of the prevention methods
that are available,” said Southern University Ag Center Chancellor, Leodrey
Williams, Ph.D.
According to the Louisiana Department
of Health and Hospitals website, the state has been working to ready its public
health and medical infrastructure. “While we certainly hope that we never have
an Ebola case in Louisiana, we are committed to ensuring that our health care
system and our emergency responders are prepared,” stated the website.

Center’s Ebola information page, visit www.suagcenter.com.
