Guinea faces "daunting" challenges in fighting Ebola
17.12.2014 10:07 "Agro Perspectiva" (Kyiv) —
Community mobilization is essential to combat the deadly Ebola virus.
However in Guinea it is very difficult to ask people to change their behaviour,
UN Radio says referring to the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) spokesperson Christophe Boulierac report.
It is to be admitted, Christophe Boulierac has just returned from a mission to the country where Ebola was first identified a year ago.
It is to be reminded, in September a mob of villagers in the West African country attacked a community action team and killed nine people after reportedly believing that Ebola was a government conspiracy.
By now the virus has claimed the lives of over 6,000 people in the region, mainly in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone.
