United Nations - Ebola Update by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesman for the United Nations Secretary-General at the Daily Noon Briefing at UN Headquarters in New York (24 November 2014).
(Update)
In our regular update on Ebola, the Director of the World Health Organization, Dr Margaret Chan, was in Mali over the weekend.
She visited an Ebola treatment centre in Bamako, and met with President Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta, as well as Prime Minister Moussa Mara and other leaders to discuss Mali’s ongoing efforts to stem the outbreak and ways United Nations organizations could enhance their support to Mali.
The visit occurred as the Government announced a new case of Ebola and said 2 more suspected patients were being tested. And the UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response will formally open an office in the country on Wednesday.
Also on Ebola, UNICEF said today it is delighted to report that their colleague who has been receiving treatment at a hospital in France has made a full recovery and is now back at home in Sierra Leone.
UNICEF thanks the Government of France for generously facilitating the medical arrangements for him and expresses its deepest gratitude to the medical teams whose expert care brought him home back to health and safety.
