health actors in the face of mistrust

The representative of the World Health Organization in Guinea Alfred Ki-Zerbo is not happy with this situation, as he explains to our correspondent in Conakry, Mouctar Bah.

The most important point in this response is to ensure acceptance and accessibility for communities, to introduce all measures to prevent, stop the spread of the virus and also to avoid risks, in particular cross-border, identified at the beginning of this response. What has happened is that a new transmission chain has been investigated. And as I say, WHO teams and other partners, who are carrying out this investigation, are in talks so that all the assets are provided to follow the various possible transmission chains. Pockets of reluctance may exist and this is not uncommon in response to epidemics. I believe that we must take into account the pockets of the resistance – which are present in all health efforts – analyze them in order to have this partnership, this cooperation with society, without which nothing can be done in the end.
