Why? The threat is real. Africa has seen a 63% rise in zoonotic outbreaks in the last decade, with Ebola & other viral haemorrhagic fevers making up nearly 70%. This program is training African scientists to predict, prevent, & respond to the next outbreak before it spirals. 2/4

First filovirus outbreak in Ethiopia. Changing times indeed. Commendable work detecting, godspeed for a solid response.
Dr Jean Kaseya@Dr_JeanKaseya

#Ethiopia has confirmed that the suspected outbreak in the Southern Region is Marburg virus disease, with at least nine people infected. I commend the rapid action and transparency of Ethiopia’s @FMoHealth and the Ethiopian Public Health Institute (@EPHIEthiopia). @AfricaCDC’s in-country team continues to work closely with national authorities, providing technical support and closely monitoring the situation. We stand with Ethiopia to contain this outbreak quickly and protect communities. ------- #Éthiopie a confirmé que la flambée suspectée dans la région du Sud est due à la maladie à virus Marburg, avec au moins neuf personnes infectées. Je salue l’action rapide et la transparence du Ministère fédéral de la Santé d’Éthiopie, et de l’Ethiopian Public Health Institute. L’équipe de Africa CDC présente dans le pays continue de travailler en étroite collaboration avec les autorités nationales, en apportant un appui technique et en suivant de près l’évolution de la situation. Nous restons aux côtés de l’Éthiopie pour contenir rapidement cette flambée et protéger les communautés.
