This has been a response of many firsts: Such as First time a Marburg patient is intubated and extubated successfully. It also recorded impressive indicators like very high recovery rate(over 70%), and outbreak contained within 3 months! Morakoze cyane!! #SSOX
WHO African Region@WHOAFRO

Watch Dr @RamadanOtim, Health Emergency Officer at @WHOAFRO, reflect on lessons learned in responding to and bringing the #Marburg outbreak in #Rwanda to an end. These include: ✅ Rapid response ✅ Contact tracing ✅ Preparedness in urban settings ✅ Rapid scale up of care ✅ Infection prevention & control

Congratulations to Prof. Ngonzi on this well-deserved elevation. Passing through his mentorship during my internship made me fall in love with Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Beyond his exceptional knowledge and teaching excellence, his humility and deep respect for patients are virtues I proudly learned from this giant.

Thanks to Kenya for continuing to build sustainable capacities for emergency response. Civil-military collaboration during emergencies is a core IHR capacity. Establishing a type 2 EMT boosts response capacity not only for Kenya but the continent.

#Kenya is developing a national Emergency Medical Team that can quickly deploy during outbreaks and disasters. The Kenya Defence Forces Type 2 team will be able to set up mobile hospital services, admit patients and perform emergency surgery when needed. @kdfinfo @MOH_Kenya

Today in Brazzaville, we opened the Filovirus Disease Optimized Supportive Care workshop with clinicians, researchers, and response partners. The African Region continues to face recurrent outbreaks of Ebola and Marburg. In many settings, clinical outcomes still depend on rapid recognition, organized referral pathways, reliable supplies, trained teams, and consistent delivery of high-quality supportive care. Over the next days, we will review emerging evidence, identify gaps in current practice, and work toward updated, harmonized clinical management guidance. We will also strengthen readiness to conduct high-quality clinical research during outbreaks, aligned with Good Clinical Practice and WHO procedures. The goal is simple: better, more standardized care that improves survival-wherever outbreaks occur. #WHOAFRO #HealthEmergencies #Ebola #Marburg #OutbreakResponse #ClinicalCare #EmergencyPreparedness #Ebola #Marburg #HealthEmergency #WHOAFRO
