Bad news, Face2Face Africa family: Do you remember Koinadugu,the only district in Sierra Leone that has been Ebola-free for the last six months due to the heroics and planning of Momoh Konte and the cooperation of his people? Well, after two unexplained deaths in October, now 25 people have died and dozens have become infected. The head of Sierra Leone’s Red Cross team John Mara explained, We discovered there had been 25 deaths already, some of them unexplained. Prior to this, the district went six months without Ebola. On 15 October there were two cases of unidentified deaths. The situation is not really good because we have just got the results that show there are 15 new cases, on top of 23 we already knew about.” Konte and his people were clearly on top of this situation but all it takes is one. Now one of the chiefs of the area is asking for help in stopping the spread of the virus, Please help us, we need your help and support.” Indeed, if this one district could keep themselves Ebola-free for six months, it shows what can be done when we plan and work together. Many prayers to the people of Koinadugu! They have proven themselves a strong people. Im sure they will be able to find a way to contain the disease.
