DRC: MSF responds to malaria outbreak in Pawa and Boma-Mangbetu

Since the 9 of May 2016, MSF is responding to an exceptional malaria outbreak in Haut Uélé, in Pawa and Boma-Mangbetu health zones. Within one month more than 40000 patients with simple or complicated malaria have been treated. MSF is supporting 32 health centers with malaria tests and treatments and training to local staff. In these health centers, patients with simple malaria receive free treatments and complicated cases are referred to the hospitals of Pawa and Boma-Mangbetu both supported by MSF. MSF is also supporting the reference health center of Babondé, south of Pawa health zone. Here a stabilization unit has been set up. In these 3 health facilities, MSF has deployed international and national staff and is providing a consequent support to these structures in terms of medicines, equipment, water and sanitation, energy and training to local staff.
