"Since June 13, 2024, Munigi Health Center in eastern DRC has received 281 suspected mpox cases, 75% of which are children under ten years old."
"Patients are treated at Nyiragongo General Hospital, where a site has been set up by Medair, prioritizing the most vulnerable amid the worrying increase in cases."
"Dr. Ngashi Ngongo noted that NGOs and African governments have mobilized support, with countries updating their outbreak response plans, indicating a significant positive shift."
"Every day, we receive nine patients with the same mpox symptoms," said nurse Tresor Basubi, highlighting the ongoing concerns regarding a lack of specific treatment.
