Ebola: Nationals from a small town in Macenta cry "planned euthanasia " after the death of 18 people (E)

Written by Mosaic. Posted in Politics

It is from a letter addressed to the Association of Guinean nationals of France, to the Supreme Council of Forest diaspora, to the deans and sages of Forest Guinea, that we learn that 18 people have died, no one knows of what, Ebola or another mysterious illness in a small town in the prefecture Macenta. Confusion reigns on site, minds are frayed. Citizens of this small town, shout to 'the planned euthanasia. Here is the letter:

Subject: URGENT S.O.S at N'ZENIE (administrative region Macenta).

To Gentlemen Presidents of ARGUIFA and CSDF, Deans and Elders of the Forest Guinea,

It is with a broken heart completely overshadowed that I write this message to request your urgent help. Here are the facts:

N'Z?ni?n our village, located 120 Kms southwest of Macenta , experienced in the space of three weeks 18 deaths the causes of which have not been formally identified. The local health authorities are confusing in their way to act. Worse, they spread terror by telling patients that the disease, Ebola is incurable. This is an error which complicates the management of the crisis.

? There is also the case of staff of the Red Cross who gave an injection to a suffering woman who passed away in the hours following the injection.

This gives rise to suspicion and unrestrained interpretations given that the injection was made without prior diagnosis. We are led to believe that the officers practiced euthanasia on the woman.

? There is also the suspicious demand from the Sub-Prefect requesting the identification of family members of the deceased to know exactly the number to send them to Macenta. This demand creates panic in parents who have no other recourse.

Here are many facts that complicate the management of the crisis Ebola and facilitates the spread of the disease.

To recap, three months ago, in Macenta, officers of the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders had separated .... We call on all levels to help manage the crisis and assist parents who are in distress.

We are counting on your understanding

N'z?ni?, a village where Ebola is ravaging in the ignorance of the authorities

From Morocco, Pokpa Sakouvogui, a young Guinean of 26 year old, a former Guinean scholar, is fighting hard to try to save his village, N'z?ni?, which he said could disappear if nothing is done.

At N'z?ni?, a village with about 500 inhabitants, are registered over 60 deaths due to Ebola virus, according to the list of names forwarded to Guin?enews from this young geologist.

For him, without a shadow of a doubt, the village would be completely isolated by the competent authorities, due to the absence of state services and roads in the rainy season. On site, "there is no health facility, so patients have no support, despite the presence of some local agents wearing clothing stamped with the sign of the red cross. They attend funerals but do nothing for the patients ..., "he says.

Aware of the threats related to the expansion of the Ebola virus in his village, Pokpa "is sending out an SOS to the relevant authorities to ask them to expedite the dispatch of a team of health workers and medical specialists to N'z?ni?, to stop the spread of this epidemic that is ravaging. The epidemic has already affected some surrounding villages such as Zinigrozou, Nobrotono and our authorities completely ignore this situation ... ".

The young citizen said that he does not understand the abandonment of his village and its inhabitants, located at 105 km from Macenta, in the sub-prefecture of Fassankoni, just 7 km from Liberia. Pending a support that is not forthcoming, Pokpa, still harbors hopes of being heard before irreversible damage occurs. "I'm already attempted by sending an SOS message to the president via his Facebook account and also on the occasion of the visit of Prime Minister to Morocco, I sent him a letter through the students' association, he has apparently not received. "

According to information gathered by Guineenews, the management of the crisis of the Ebola in Nz?ni? experienced a few months ago, a revolt by villagers when a suffering woman had passed away after an injection she would have received. Also, an application for the registration of family members of the deceased, without any explanation, would have favored panic among villagers who fueled interpretations and suspicions against agents of the Red Cross. But is that a reason to simply ignore the ravages of Ebola in this lonely village? A case to be built.

Ebola in Guinea: How the virus spread in the village of N'z?ni? (Macenta) with more than 60 people dead?

MACENTA- N'z?ni?, a small town about 7km from the Liberian border and 105 km south-east of the urban commune of Macenta in the sub-prefecture of Fassankoni. In this village, counting about 500 inhabitants, the Ebola epidemic has claimed more than 60 lives. But How Ebola succeeded in killing so many in such a period of time and in a less populated place also? Africagui.com managed to have a witness in all exclusivity, the prefectural Health Director of Macenta, Dr. Mamadou Diallo.

Explanations ...

"N'z?ni? is a village in the sub-prefecture of Fassankony south of the prefecture Macenta. The outbreak started there since July. There was a renowned healer much frequented by patients. He received patients (of Ebola) from Liberia, he began to treat them. Meanwhile, several deaths occurred at home. And finally, he, his wife, his mother and his children all died. The villagers felt that it was his fetish that was angry against them. So, in such circumstances, it was necessary that the fetish first kills seven people before settling down.

Our response team was alerted. We went to the scene, we tried to educate. But people did not believe at all. For them it is a problem of fetish and not a disease. Because they felt it was not the first time that such situations arise. With their ancestors it had happened too. We did everything, they would not understand.

And finally since we were too endearing, we were forbidden the village, they closed the village. We left and we lost access. After seven deaths, they said it would take fourteen (deaths), arrived at fourteen when it had exceeded, they said it would take twenty-one deaths for the fetish to calm. So they went Sept to Sept, so they went very far in deaths. Only when they were overwhelmed by the burials that they did call us. They opened the doors of the village.

Thus when we arrived on the scene, we started working . All suspected cases, they were transported to our management center . And we instituted tracking system of contacts, we increased awareness, we provided hygiene kits. We set up a sanitary control post in this village as it is situated at the border. Five officers are stationed there. They continue to raise awareness of proximity.

Today we are on good terms with this population. And whenever there are cases, they alerts us, we send the Red Cross to take patients and bring them back. It must be recognized that there have been many deaths in this village. But these deaths are related to reluctance. This is because they have refused the intervention in time that it got worse ', said Dr Mamadou Diallo.
