"It is a treatment that was adopted in Burkina by a decree," said the interim coordinator of the response plan on the intervention of the drug. Even if at the international level, tests are still in progress, Dr Bicaba believes that it is on the basis of a certain number of facts that Burkina authorized the use of this treatment.

Returning to the possibility of introducing other treatments, the coordinator of the response plan spoke out. “We received a donation from Madagascar. Together with clinical and research stakeholders, we will see how to use these products, ”said Dr Bicaba.
