Le Figaro followed French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot’s visit to Bunia, in Ituri. The report by its special correspondent, Tanguy Berthemet, takes readers to the Rwampara Ebola treatment centre (ETC), one of the first to open in the region, run by ALIMA (The Alliance for International Medical Action).
The journalist describes how the centre is organised, from the controlled entrance to the care areas. The space is designed to isolate patients while still allowing families to visit their loved ones. Le Figaro notes that ALIMA also runs four other ETCs in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The report also looks at the challenges facing the response in Ituri. Read the full report bellow:
