Abstract
The article discusses several aspects of how Madagascar can build stronger health systems to fight plague and prevent the next epidemic. It mentions that the Madagascar's Ministry of Health has strong existing policies to guide its health system but has insufficient resources to implement them. It also mentions that strengthened health systems are grounded in several components like well-trained staff, medicines, infectious disease management and hospital care.
