Alert on the sale of expired hand sanitizers in Bunia amid Ebola response

In Bunia, Ituri province, civil society actors are denouncing the sale of expired hand sanitizers, often diluted with water, in shops and by street vendors. Merchants are falsifying labels to conceal the non-compliance of products, provoking outrage among human rights defenders. Public health experts warn that using these ineffective gels could facilitate the spread of the Ebola virus.
