The next president will have the power to greatly influence, if not flat-out determine, the fate of reproductive rights, gun control measures, paid family leave and the minimum wage -- to name just a few of the many issues that directly affect women's lives.
The basic reproductive numbers with different control measures are determined and analyzed, and we give the critical value of probability of successful detection and treatment of infectious individuals.
Although recent cumulative case data over October 2014 from Liberia suggest that the exponential growth that has characterized the epidemic for both communities and health care workers may be slowing down (30), it is too early to tell whether this apparent reduction in the effective reproductive number is a result of control measures initiated toward the end of September.

We speculate that the large difference in initial R is because, when the index case is identified, this parameter is effectively the initial reproductive rate with early institution of control measures.
The impact of control measures on the effective reproductive number can be clearly seen in all four outbreaks.
It also appears that the greatest difference between the spread of influenza in a closed population without the ability to implement control measures is a large initial reproductive number that declines rapidly.
Reproductive science has provided a range of fertility control measures for women, but the choices for men are few and currently limited to condoms and vasectomy [ 1].
Women in violent relationships may have reduced control over the choice and use of reproductive services, including family planning or other fertility control measures for fear of further violence from abusive partners.
As the size of the semiconductor work force expands, the potential for adverse health effects, ranging from transient irritant symptoms to reproductive effects and cancer, must be determined and control measures instituted.
Because birth control measures were sparse during these women's reproductive life, especially in the years between their marriage and their first child, this measure should adequately estimate time to pregnancy.
