Tshopo: Ebola vaccination campaign begins
Fri 28/08/2026 - 10:47
In Kisangani, the Minister of Health, Dr. Roger Kamba, launched the Ebola vaccination campaign on Friday, August 28, in the province of Tshopo where 17 cases have already been confirmed.
As soon as it opened to frontline staff, a large crowd was observed in front of the vaccination center. Doctors, nurses, community health workers, and communications staff are the primary targets of this campaign.
"The virus is challenging healthcare providers. From the beginning, they have paid a heavy price," suggested Minister Roger Kamba, who asked the audience to applaud all the healthcare workers involved in the response.
In his message specifically addressed to frontline healthcare workers, the minister stated that "even with all precautions, a mistake can still happen. And unfortunately, we are seeing some people become infected even though they were well protected. That is why I urge all healthcare providers to get this vaccine."
In Tshopo, with 17 cases already confirmed, at least three health zones are targeted by this campaign. "If you make every effort to stop this virus, we won't achieve more than this," said the minister before confirming that "people who received treatment for the virus after contact with infected individuals have not developed the disease here in Tshopo."
The DRC has turned to the Everbo vaccine to bolster its response to Ebola. Other provinces neighboring Ituri will also be included in this campaign, following a program established by the Ministry of Health. Roger Kamba states that he has already received at least 50,000 doses of the Everbo vaccine to combat the 17th Ebola outbreak, which has already affected more than 5,000 people in just 100 days.

Lubero: Ebola awareness campaign intensifies in Manguredjipa
22 hours ago RMBB Editorial Staff
A health crisis meeting was held this Thursday, July 27, 2026, in Manguredjipa-Ngoma, the main town of the Bapere sector, Lubero territory, North Kivu. The multipurpose hall of the Kitumbiro Primary School (EP) served as the venue for this meeting, chaired by the Bapere sector chief, Kombi Nepanepa Changa, and attended by other members of the health authorities' security committee.
A lull in the fighting has been observed throughout the Bapere sector. The loyalist army, the Wazalendu MP0, and the UPDF forces were commended for this. Regarding the Ebola virus disease, a special appeal was made to the local population to observe preventative measures and, above all, to cooperate with medical teams.
The Manguredjipa health zone has reported its first confirmed cases of Ebola virus disease. Kombi Nepanepa Changa is asking his constituents to be cautious.
Five days ago, the Butembo-based NGO/DH Solidarity and Human Dignity reported that high-risk individuals had fled the war zone from Butembo to Manguredjipa. In addition to the Manguredjipa health zone, the Biena health zone has also recorded positive cases, according to medical sources.
Thus, of the seven health zones in the Lubero territory, five are now affected by the 17th Ebola Bundibugyo outbreak. These zones lack the logistical resources needed to support healthcare workers and community members in their Ebola response.
