Most of the these contacts are of Fogo, 1 in Afia. Others in the sub-prefecture of Koin "
On the question of how these contacts were found in Koin, Bachir Diallo says: "After taking samples Saturday, January 31, the father of the deceased Mamadou Aliou Balde wanted to hide his family. He scattered them everywhere, including two little girls sent in a family of Kounta (Koin). It was yesterday Monday, February 2 that these girls returned, also this family from Kounta had come to offer condolences to the family mortuary in Fogo. It is this morning Tuesday that the DPS of Tougu? sent an officer of the SENAFOD, the head of Koin health center Thierno Boubacar Barry who, since the confirmation of suspected cases has spared no effort in this fight to go to Kounta undertake identification of contacts, and place the family in quarantine "Also in the day of Tuesday there were 15 community health agents selected to monitor those contacts.

She walked alone as for her mother Binta Diaye, her condition was a bit critical because she did not take the treatment initially. At that moment, she was standing well, it is on the way that her case worsened.
It is also noted that when we left the scene around 16 hours and 45 minutes, there were sharp clashes between the Red Cross officials who drew the pump to go spray the health post, by an adult who considered that they came to kill them.
It took the intervention of the reporter Guineematin.com for him to return to reason. Finally, he admitted that "it is our parents who call us and tell us that these people are coming to put the virus in our well so refuse"
The President of the Fogo District, himself, received a call telling him not to use chlorine, it contains the virus. That is why he asked for the cessation of these kinds of misinformation: "We need our citizens r?sidanats to also stop these kinds of unfounded allegations complicating the work of actors to fight against the disease and putting the lives of their parents in dangers" , di-til.
Subjects contacts need help especially food aid, until yesterday Tuesday, February 3, 2015, there was no food ration for these people.
Apart promises.
