Video statement by Dr Tedros following attacks on Ebola responders in the DR Congo

“We are heartbroken that people have died in the line of duty as they worked to save others from Ebola. We call on everyone who has a role to play to end this cycle of violence.” WHO Director-General Dr Tedros

“Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was retreating. The two attacks that happened last night will give the outbreak force again. It is tragic that there will be more unnecessary suffering in communities that have already suffered so much.”
