Mpox: the epicenter of an out-of-control epidemic" (France 2 report)
In the epicenter of the Mpox epidemic, in Kamituga, DRC, ALIMA (The Alliance for International Medical Action) is on the front line against a new strain of the virus. This France 2 report reveals the health and logistical challenges facing our teams on the ground.

Extract from the report "Mpox: the epicenter of an out-of-control epidemic" broadcast on France 2

In this immense country, 4.5 times the size of France, health services are powerless. It's an 8-hour drive over broken tracks to reach Kamituga, the epicenter of this epidemic. It was here, in this mining town, that the new strain of the Mpox virus was first spotted. The NGO ALIMA has set up in a wing of the hospital and is taking care of the sick.

The contagion is simply through direct contact with an infected person, which makes us fear the worst for the huge refugee camps in eastern Congo. In this region, war and fighting have driven 7 million people from their homes.

ALIMA has deployed a rapid and effective response to combat this health crisis. In collaboration with a coalition of local and international partners, ALIMA is implementing an approach based on three pillars: medical care for patients, epidemiological surveillance, and awareness-raising among affected communities.
