"As a pediatrician, my training is in preventing disease and keeping children healthy.
And so we take advantage of - and are appreciative of - the massive vaccine program in our country to help prevent the spread of a more serious epidemic of anything ranging from flu to measles and what I see as cases of devastating illness that would otherwise be preventable.
I understand how important it is to act now to keep Ebola from being a massive problem that affects the lives of many, The importance of prevention and early intervention," stated Priscilla Chan Zuckerberg.
