Soka Moses

James Soka Moses is a Liberian physician and a leader in public health. As a newly trained doctor, he took on one of the most difficult jobs during the 2014 Ebola outbreak: working in one of Monrovia’s largest treatment units. He managed a high volume of highly contagious patients, using a collaborative approach to help save lives. After the Ebola outbreak ended, he turned his focus to helping the thousands of survivors. He provided care and support through the Ebola Survivor’s Clinic and led an important program to help prevent the sexual transmission of the disease. His courageous work was featured in the CNN documentary, Unseen Enemy. Today, James remains a key figure in Liberia’s healthcare system. He is the CEO of his own company, Soka Medical, and has been at the forefront of the country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. His career is a testament to his dedication to building a stronger, more resilient public health system in his home country.
