In Mongbwalu, the epicentre of the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, MSF has received a mobile laboratory from the Ministry of Health/Africa Center of Disease Control/Institut National de Recherche Biomédicale, enabling on-site testing at the hospital. Ebola test results are now available within 24 hours, improving patient care and reducing uncertainty for families. Alongside hospital-based care, MSF is also working at community level to strengthen early detection, support health centres, and ensure patients are referred as early as possible for appropriate treatment. #Ebola
