Eight people with symptoms close to yellow fever have been identified in Kamako and Kandjaji, two localities located on the border with Angola and 150 kilometers south of Tshikapa, capital of Kasai.
The head of the hygiene program at the border, who delivers the information, specifies that all these people come from Angola and that the samples were taken and sent to the INRB.
“These people do not live in the DRC. They are Congolese who come from Angola. They have a very high fever. a yellow coloration. With the naked eye, we can speak of yellow fever but we are awaiting confirmation from the INRB", indicates the head of the border hygiene program, Christian Mabedi.
The latter also regrets the delay taken by the INRB to follow up on the samples sent and fears that if these cases are proven, the time taken by the INRB exposes the population.
