Dear Donor,
Your generosity has enabled the fight against Ebola to be much easier.
Contact follow-up remains one of the most demanding components of the Ebola response.
ECDC reports that 75.9% of identified case contacts are currently under follow-up in affected provinces.
At Development Alert, the team continues encouraging communities to cooperate with trained surveillance and contact-tracing teams.
People who may have been exposed need clear explanations about why follow-up is necessary and how monitoring can help identify illness early.
Community cooperation can make surveillance more effective while reducing fear and misunderstanding.
Your support helps build the trust and awareness required for communities to participate constructively in disease surveillance.
