On February 1, the woman was diagnosed with Ebola in Biena. He died at a hospital in Buttembo just two days later. The woman's husband had contracted Ebola during an earlier outbreak. However, it is not yet certain whether a new outbreak has already started from this year's infection. The Congolese health ministry said in a statement on Sunday that the provincial response team was already working hard. The national response team will help them. They will be going to Buttembo soon.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is cooperating to control Ebola in the Congo. The WHO said local health authorities had identified at least 60 people who came in contact with the dead women. The places he visited have also been disinfected. Samples of the virus have been sent to the country's capital, Kinshasa, to confirm whether there is a link between the infection and previous infections. Scattered infections are not uncommon after large-scale outbreaks, the WHO said. It is feared that the new Ebola outbreak could challenge coronavirus control in Congo. At least 23,700 people have been infected with corona in the country so far, with 61 people dying. Anti-coronary vaccination is expected to begin in the first half of this year.
