Telemedicine was effective in fighting the Ebola virus disease in some parts of Africa.
“They were effective in the fighting of the Ebola virus disease in some parts of Africa [4].”
From The development of telemedicine programs in Sub-Saharan Africa: Progress and associated challenges (2022) · cites this paper as [4]
The Results and Conclusion (page unavailable) describe telemedicine hotlines, consultations, and contact-tracing applications used during the Ebola outbreak in several African countries. The Conclusion reports that a mobile consultation service detected 20 suspicious cases, but the paper does not establish that telemedicine was effective in fighting the disease; it describes broader benefits as potential.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
