Dear Donor,
Ebola response depends heavily on cooperation between communities and health workers.
WHO reports that tens of thousands of contacts are currently being monitored in affected areas, demonstrating the enormous scale of surveillance and follow-up required.
Development Alert continues encouraging communities to cooperate respectfully with trained health teams, provide accurate information and report concerns through appropriate channels.
Community cooperation can help surveillance teams identify potential exposures, follow up contacts and connect people with appropriate services.
At the same time, communities deserve clear explanations about why response activities are taking place.
Trust grows when people are treated with dignity and receive understandable information.
Your support helps strengthen the community relationships that are essential to effective outbreak response.
