  • UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER) External Situation Report 15 December 2014
    UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER) External Situation Report 15 December 2014 KEY POINTS The last patient being treated for Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) in Mali has made a full recovery. UNICEF and the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs have supported the rehabilitation of 47 out of 52 water points in Kindia, region, Guinea. 18,188 confirmed, probable, and suspected cases of EVD have been reported in the three most affected countries, where there have been 6,583 reported deaths. Key Political and Economic Developments 1. The last patient that was being treated for EVD in Mali has made a full recovery, a senior health ministry official said Thursday. The person had tested negative on his second EVD test on December 6. The patient was the only person still being treated for EVD in Mali. If no new cases arise, Mali will be declared EVD-free on 18 January 2015. 2. A man who entered Guinea-Bissau from neighboring Guinea the day after the border reopened is being treated for suspected EVD, a medical official said on Friday. The traveler was running a temperature and put under surveillance as he tried to pass through the Fulamori border crossing. He took advantage of lax security among border guards to escape observation and boarded a bus headed for the eastern city of Gabu, where he was apprehended. "He had a temperature higher than 39 degrees Celsius (102 Fahrenheit). It is for this reason that we have isolated him pending further analysis of his case," said Gilda Helena De Almeida Vieira, head nurse at a health post in the western village of Buruntuma.

  • Rapid and Focused Ethnographies to Decrease Tensions in Guinea's Ebola Crisis
    kritisk etnografi – Swedish Journal of Anthropology VOL. 3, NO. 2 URN:NBN:SE:UU:DIVA-432450 Rapid and Focused Ethnographies to Decrease Tensions in Guinea’s Ebola Crisis Syna Ouattara | Researcher, Gothenburg Research Institute, University of Gothenburg ABSTRACT This article is based on the personal experiences of the author as an anthropologist working for the WHO during the West African Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak between 2013 and 2016. As in earlier outbreaks in Central and East Africa, interventions by local and international institutional actors to control the EVD outbreak in West Africa faced resistance from populations, thus contributing to the spread and persistence of the epidemic. Distrust of health workers – sometimes resulting in aggressive attacks – presented an extreme challenge to the Ebola eradication initiative. Faced with a highly volatile situation, various international organisations decided to employ social scientists and particularly applied anthropologists, to help facilitate communication between the EVD response teams and the affected populations. By describing specific cases where anthropological methods – specifically, rapid and focused ethnographies – contributed to the progressive subsiding of reluctance to EVD interventions in the prefecture of Kindia, Guinea, the author demonstrates how these tools can be effective methods for anthropologists to contribute to managing severe public health emergencies. Keywords: Applied anthropology, rapid and focused ethnographies, Ebola, public health emergency, Guinea Introduction During the Ebola outbreak in West Africa from 2013-2016, the response from the anthropological community was one of the most rapid and expansive anthropological interventions made to a global health emergency in the discipline’s history (see Abramowitz 2017; Venables and Pellecchia 2017).
