🔴 EMERGENCIA ÉBOLA
Trabajamos día y noche para contener la propagación del brote de Ébola y reforzar la atención a pacientes en República Democrática del Congo.
Alan González es nuestro director adjunto de Operaciones y muestra gran preocupación por la situación:
In eastern DR Congo’s Bunia, camp supervisor Richard Mbagaro walked through the Kigonze displaced camp with a megaphone, urging residents to wash their hands with soap or ash as fears mount over the spread of Ebola https://t.co/k1mezGfyHy|
VIDEO | Trabajadores de la salud han comenzado a realizar pruebas de detección del ébola en las calles de Goma, en el este de la República Democrática del Congo, a pocas horas de la llegada del director general de la OMS, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, al país para evaluar el brote.
"Es totalmente inaceptable"
La directora de @WFP condena el ataque ataque con misiles en Dnipro, Ucrania, a uno de sus almacenes que albergaba las reservas de alimentos para 130.000 personas que se encuentran en primera línea de la guerra y el hambre.
𝐐: Are vaccines available to protect people against #Ebola?
𝐀: Vaccines are available for some Ebola species, particularly Zaire ebolavirus, which has caused several outbreaks in Africa. However, vaccines are not yet widely available for all strains, including Bundibugyo ebolavirus. This makes early detection, contact tracing, infection prevention and community engagement even more critical during outbreaks caused by these strains.

"Eastern Congo was already facing an enormous humanitarian crisis before this outbreak. Conflict has displaced millions. Funding for basic healthcare has been cut, and whole communities have no access to even the most fundamental medical support. Now there is an Ebola strain with no vaccine. Our teams are on the ground and ready but the scale of need is significant, and we cannot meet it without support." — Emmanuel de Merode, Virunga National Park's Director

#Ebola Bundibugyo virus update:
- So far, 101 cases have been confirmed in the #DRC, including 10 confirmed deaths. But we know the epidemic in the DRC is much larger. There are now more than 900 suspected cases and 220 suspected deaths.
- #Uganda has reported two additional confirmed cases among healthcare workers, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to seven, including one confirmed death.
We are continuing to scale up the response with our partners, and we expect more cases to be identified in the coming days and weeks.
The sooner we can trace people with infections and identify their contacts, the sooner we can provide the care they need and bring this outbreak under control.
En la era de la #InteligenciaArtificial, en la que la dignidad humana corre el riesgo de verse eclipsada por nuevas formas de deshumanización, tenemos el deber urgente de permanecer profundamente humanos, custodiando con amor esa magnífica humanidad que se nos ha dado y revelado en plenitud en Cristo, y que ninguna máquina podrá jamás sustituir en su esplendor. #MagnificaHumanitas

Community trust is the foundation of effective public health response. Without community support, outbreak control measures cannot succeed.
@WHO is working with community leaders in Bunia, #DRC, to build confidence, address concerns and share clear information about #Ebola.
Since our founding in 1971, we’ve grown to a global movement delivering emergency medical care in over 70 countries. Thanks to our 7 million individual donors, we provide care where it’s needed.
The International Rescue Committee aid organization warned on Tuesday that the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda is now spreading faster than responders can contain it and risks becoming "the deadliest on record." https://t.co/TuJH7TO8RI
