This week in Brazzaville, we convened the Filovirus Disease Optimized Supportive Care workshop with clinicians, researchers, and response partners.
The goal is simple: better, more standardized care that improves survival-wherever outbreaks occur.

2. The #Ebola case count in Uganda stands at 2 confirmed; 1 has died. The 2nd confirmed patient is the wife of the current index case, who died. At least 3 other people are ill. Lots of contacts, in a number of different places. #WHOAFRO suggests the risk of spread elsewhere is high.

1. Good to see updates on the #Ebola Sudan outbreak in Uganda & the #Marburg outbreak in Tanzania in the latest #WHOAFRO weekly bulletin. Both countries appear to be working hard to contain the outbreaks; neither releases case updates very often. iris.who.int/bitstream/ha...
