Ebola response in Equater Province

New strategies in place to treat Ebola

On 1 June, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) declared its eleventh Ebola outbreak in Equateur province in the northwest. The outbreak has progressed slowly since, and the numbers now stand at 130 confirmed patients and 55 deaths. MSF teams have been active in the area since the beginning and favoured a decentralised, community-focused approach, based on supporting micro-structures for Ebola care in local healthcare facilities, close to patients and families, relying on local health workers and limiting the use of large, centralised facilities and personnel from outside the community.
