Ishami ry’Umuryango w’Abibumbye ryita ku Buzima (OMS) ryatangaje ko icyorezo cya Ebola gikomeje gukwirakwira ku muvuduko udasanzwe mu burasirazuba bwa Repubulika Iharanira Demokarasi ya Congo (RDC), nubwo hari ibikorwa byinshi biri gukorwa byo kugikumira no kuvura abarwayi.
Umuyobozi ushinzwe ibikorwa by’ubutabazi bwihuse muri OMS, Chikwe Ihekweazu, yavuze ku wa Kabiri ko uruzinduko yagiriye mu gace kibasiwe cyane n’iki cyorezo rwamweretse ibintu bibiri bitandukanye: hari intambwe zimaze guterwa mu guhangana na Ebola, ariko nanone hari ibibazo bikomeye bikomeje gutuma icyorezo cyiyongera.
Aganira n’abanyamakuru i Genève nyuma yo kuva mu mujyi wa Bunia, Dr. Ihekweazu yavuze ko nubwo umubare w’abandura wagabanyijwe muri tumwe mu duce, Ebola ikomeje gukwirakwira ku muvuduko uruta uw’ibikorwa byo kuyirwanya.
Yagize ati: “Nubwo twageze ku ntambwe ishimishije mu kugabanya umubare w’abandura, icyorezo kiracyihuta kurusha imbaraga ziri gushyirwa mu kukirwanya.”
OMS ivuga ko ubu iki cyorezo ari cyo gikomeje gukwirakwira vuba kurusha ibindi byose byigeze byandikwa mu mateka ya Ebola. Kugeza ku wa 11 Nyakanga, hari hamaze kwemezwa abantu hafi 2.000 banduye, mu gihe abarenga 700 bari bamaze guhitanwa na cyo.
Ikintu gihangayikishije kurushaho, nk’uko Dr. Ihekweazu yabitangaje, ni uko benshi mu bantu baherutse gupfa bazize Ebola bapfiriye mu ngo zabo batarigeze bagera kwa muganga cyangwa ngo bahabwe ubuvuzi.
Yavuze kandi ko 80% by’abantu bashya banduye batigeze baba ku rutonde rw’abantu bari barahuye n’abarwayi bazwi, bivuze ko inkomoko y’ubwandu bwabo itazwi.
Ibi byerekana ko hari imirongo myinshi y’ikwirakwizwa ry’icyorezo itaramenyekana, bikagora cyane ibikorwa byo kugenzura no guhagarika ubwandu.
Nubwo hagiye hagaragara ibitero byibasiye ibigo n’abakozi b’ubuzima, Dr. Ihekweazu yavuze ko ibyo ari ibikorwa bibaye rimwe na rimwe.
Yongeyeho ko uburyo bwiza bwo kongera icyizere cy’abaturage ari ugukorera mu mucyo no gusobanurira abaturage neza serivisi zitangirwa mu bigo nderabuzima.
Iki cyorezo cyatewe n’ubwoko bwa virusi ya Ebola buzwi nka Bundibugyo, ubwoko butarabonera urukingo rwemewe ku rwego mpuzamahanga. Nubwo hari ubushakashatsi bwatangiye ku miti ishobora kuvura ubu bwoko bwa virusi, kugeza ubu nta muti wemewe cyangwa urukingo rwemewe burabonerwa.
Virusi ya Ebola ni imwe mu ndwara zandura cyane. Ishobora kwanduza abantu binyuze ku nyamaswa zo mu ishyamba, hanyuma ikagira abantu ikwirakwizwa no guhura n’amazi yo mu mubiri w’uwarwaye cyangwa wapfuye, harimo amaraso, ibirutsi, amasohoro n’andi mavangingo y’umubiri. Ishobora kandi kwandurira ku myenda, ibitanda n’ibindi bikoresho byakoreshejwe n’uwanduye.
OMS ikomeje gusaba abaturage bo muri RDC kubahiriza amabwiriza y’inzego z’ubuzima, kwihutira kujya kwa muganga igihe bagaragaje ibimenyetso bya Ebola no kwirinda guhisha abarwayi, kuko ari bwo buryo bw’ingenzi bwo kugabanya ikwirakwira ry’iki cyorezo no kurengera ubuzima bw’abaturage.
