Before the Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak of 2014-2016, Guinea did not have an emergency management system in place. During the outbreak, Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) 2014-2019 funds made it possible to rapidly improve the country's capacity to manage epidemics through the development of public health emergency operation centres (PHEOCs) at the national and district levels. Since the end of the response, the infrastructure, staff, and systems of these PHEOCs have been further reinforced and well-integrated in the daily activities of Guinea's National Agency for Health Security, the entity responsible for the management of epidemics. The development of PHEOCs as emergency management tools for epidemics in Guinea would not have been possible without a strong endorsement within the Ministry of Health. Guinea's PHEOC network is well-positioned to serve as a model of excellence for other Ministries in Guinea and Ministries of Health of other countries of West Africa.
在2014 - 2016年埃博拉病毒病（EVD）疫情爆发之前，几内亚没有应急管理系统。在疫情期间，2014 - 2019年全球卫生安全议程（GHSA）资金使该国能够通过在国家和地区层面建立公共卫生应急行动中心（PHEOC）来迅速提高管理疫情的能力。自应对行动结束以来，这些PHEOC的基础设施、工作人员和系统得到了进一步加强，并很好地融入了几内亚国家卫生安全局的日常活动中，该机构负责疫情管理。如果没有卫生部的大力支持，在几内亚将PHEOC发展成为疫情应急管理工具是不可能的。几内亚的PHEOC网络完全有能力成为几内亚其他部委以及西非其他国家卫生部的卓越典范。
