Measures against Ebola outbreak work

geneva - Attempts to curb the outbreak of Ebola in the northeast of the Democratic Republic of Congo seem to be successful. That is what the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Friday, although the data have yet to be carefully analyzed and the risk of contamination has certainly not passed.

'The latest trend indicates that the control measures work,' according to the WHO statement. It is easier to trace people who have had contact with ebola patients, to treat the sick more quickly with medicines and people who are at risk of inoculation.
