T he 2019-2020 Ebola virus disease (EVD) outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) was a tragic and significant threat to thousands of people in the DRC and West Africa in general. 11, 12 Globally, measles surged in 2019 and killed about 140,000 worldwide, 13 which is about 9.2 times the total number of deaths caused by EVD in its 43-year history as a human pathogen. However, in my view, the "unfinished agenda for child survival," 14 also qualifies as a public health emergency that should be of international concern. 15 Clearly, global child mortality fits the World Health Organization's definition of a "Grade 3" emergency and should be categorized as such. The "unfinished agenda for child survival," also qualifies as a public health emergency that should be of international concern.	./cache/cord-309141-vwudbuzz.txt	./txt/cord-309141-vwudbuzz.txt
