REPORTAGE - Libera nach Ebola
Mothers bring their children to be vaccinated for polio during a polio vaccination campaign in Tunkia, near Kenema in Sierra Leone. A national vaccination campaign was being run throughout the whole of Sierra Leone for four days. Ebola virus disease is thought to have spread to Sierra Leone in May 2014. However, some samples taken for Lassa fever testing turned out to be Ebola when re-tested, showing that Ebola had been in Sierra Leone as early as 2006. Sierra Leone entered a 90-day period of enhanced surveillance which was scheduled to conclude on 5 February 2016, but due to a new case in mid-January it did not. It was reported that the woman who died of the virus may have exposed others and so 100 people were quarantined. WHO released a statement, indicating that originally the 90-day enhanced surveillance period was to end on 5 February 2016.

However, some samples taken for Lassa fever testing turned out to be Ebola when re-tested, showing that Ebola had been in Sierra Leone as early as 2006. Sierra Leone entered a 90-day period of enhanced surveillance which was scheduled to conclude on 5 February 2016, but due to a new case in mid-January it did not. It was reported that the woman who died of the virus may have exposed others and so 100 people were quarantined. WHO released a statement, indicating that originally the 90-day enhanced surveillance period was to end on 5 February 2016.
