Ituri: Iracan denounces failures in epidemiological surveillance against Ebola

Deputy Iracan Gratien de Saint-Nicolas denounced failures in epidemiological surveillance that contributed to the rapid spread of the Ebola epidemic in Ituri. During a press conference in Bunia, he emphasized that the health system failed to detect the circulation of the virus early, suggesting it may have started as early as January or February. He called for an assessment of responsibilities once the epidemic is controlled and criticized the functioning of certain health zones.
