FILE - In this Sept. 9, 2014 file photo, Valor Christian High School sophomore and volunteer Paige Kula loads a pallet with medical supplies bound for Sierra Leone to combat Ebola, inside the warehouse of Project C.U.R.E., in Centennial, Colo. The US strategy in fighting Ebola is two-pronged: Step up efforts to deliver desperately needed supplies and people to West Africa, while making sure hospitals at home know what to do if someone travels here with the infection. In addition to shipments of hospital beds and protective suits, the government is taking unusual steps to encourage a variety of health care workers to volunteer to go to the outbreak zone _ and is offering some training before they head out. Here are questions and answers on the U.S. response. (AP Photo/Brennan Linsley, File)

FILE - This handout file photo taken Sept. 2, 2014, provided by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) shows a 39-year-old woman, the first participant enrolled in VRC 207, receiving a dose of the investigational NIAID/GSK Ebola vaccine at the National Institute of Health (NIH) Clinical Center in Bethesda, Md. The hope is that the first human safety study of the vaccine might eventually be used in the current Ebola outbreak in West Africa. New monkey studies show that one shot of an experimental Ebola vaccine can trigger fast protection, but the effect waned unless the animals got a booster shot made a different way.
