MSF has established an Ebola training centre in Nairobi to prepare health workers for the fastest-growing outbreak in DR Congo, which has claimed at least 600 lives since mid-May 2026. The facility simulates high-risk field conditions, including personal protective equipment use, community engagement, and safe burial practices, addressing challenges such as armed conflict and misinformation.
Training began in mid-June, targeting up to 100 participants monthly from MSF, the Kenyan Ministry of Health, and other NGOs to mitigate the high infection rates among medical staff and improve response capabilities in the volatile region.
