Document: Despite emerging in the megacity of Lagos, the Nigeria EVD outbreak was well documented and well contained because of rapid detection of the index case and thorough contact tracing throughout the outbreak. Contact tracing provides a detailed understanding of viral spread, which is key to controlling any viral outbreak.
