Ebola pandemic in Guinea / Ziguinchor regional hospital
“If this disease appears here, it will be a total stampede. No quarantine center is made available to the hospital ”(Unionist)
Announced in Guinea Conakry, the Ebola virus disease reappeared six years later in this country bordering Senegal. A very contagious disease. Senegal is more than alert, but the health structures of Casamance seem not to be ready to fight against this pandemic. It is the secretary general of the CNTS, regional hospital section of Ziguinchor who sounds the alert.
According to Sim?on Faye, the regional hospital of Ziguinchor, which is a reference throughout Casamance, eg which receives patients from Guinea and Gambia, has not yet prepared.
This is why he invites the authorities to anticipate, not without denouncing the excessive politicization of the department. “The ministry as long as it is entrusted to politicians, its functioning will fail. The health system is not based on the reality on the ground, but rather on politics. "He specifies that" in Eva Marie Coll Seck's time, Senegal had no case of Ebola.
This disease has resurfaced in Guinea Conakry, until I am speaking to you, we have not taken the steps to be able to remedy this. It is covid-19 patients who occupy the site which had been reserved for interning Ebola patients. And the material planned for Ebola is used for the coronavirus, ”he said.
This is why he underlines that “the regional hospital of Ziguinchor is not prepared to face Ebola. If this disease appears in Ziguinchor, it will be a total rout. No quarantine center is made available to the hospital to be able to deal with Ebola cases ”,
