An Ebola Treatment Centre was established in Bunia, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). It will be jointly managed by the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization (WHO). A team of Ebola care specialists from Kinshasa will arrive on Monday (31 May) to support the existing team.
Constructed by the Centre Évangélique Médical (CEM) to house paediatric services, the building was 99 percent complete and ready for equipment installation before the Ebola outbreak. The outbreak caused severe disruption in the hospital, with multiple staff infected, including two doctors who died, one nurse, and four staff who recovered. Many contacts are still under surveillance.
Because the building was isolated from other hospital structures, it was chosen to serve as an Ebola Treatment Centre (ETC). The ETC will be jointly managed by the Ministry of Health and WHO. At present, the centre has 24 beds for confirmed cases, 18 beds for suspected cases (total 42 beds), with a potential to expand the number of beds in the coming days. A team of Ebola care specialists from Kinshasa will arrive on Monday (31 May) to support the existing team.
