MSF announces the closure of its Ebola treatment center "Elikya" in Bunia on October 31st
Published on Tue, 20/10/2026 - 13:03 | Modified on Tue, 20/10/2026 - 13:03
Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has announced the closure, on October 31, of its Ebola treatment center Elikya, in Bunia, Ituri province. In a statement released Monday evening, October 21, the organization indicated that its emergency teams will be redeployed to other areas affected by the epidemic.
Despite a decrease in the number of new cases in some localities, health authorities are calling on the population to remain vigilant.
Established in Bunia at the beginning of June, the Elikya center has a capacity of approximately 100 beds. According to MSF, 572 confirmed cases of Ebola have been treated there since its opening.
The organization specifies that the facility is no longer accepting new patients. These patients are now being referred to the four other treatment centers still operational in Bunia.
According to MSF's emergency coordinator for the Ebola response in Ituri, the available healthcare capacity in the city allows for continued treatment without maintaining the Elikya center. The organization therefore plans to redeploy its emergency teams to other areas where the needs remain significant.
Vigilance remains essential.
In the Mambasa territory, more than two weeks have passed without a new confirmed positive case in Niania, according to medical sources. Health authorities attribute this trend in particular to the community's adherence to preventive measures.
However, transmission of the virus remains active in other areas affected by the epidemic. MSF calls on the population to maintain preventive measures and to promptly report any suspected cases.
The organization states that it is continuing its commitment to the Ebola response. It has eight treatment centers in the affected areas, with a total announced capacity of 300 beds.

Ebola in Beni: Seven students infected in two weeks in Mangina
Tue 20/10/2026 - 17:52At least seven confirmed cases of Ebola virus disease have been recorded in the space of two weeks among students in Mangina, in the Mabalako health zone (Beni territory), North Kivu. Faced with this situation, the Catholic Teachers' Union (SYNECATH) of the Mangina parish is raising the alarm about the inadequacy of prevention measures in several schools.
According to Muhindo Musubao Kiwanza, parish delegate of SYNECATH, the cases identified concern two secondary school students, from two different institutes, as well as five schoolchildren from three primary schools.
Concerned about the spread of the virus in schools, the union is calling for the urgent mobilization of those involved in the Ebola response. It is specifically requesting the intervention of the chief medical officer of the Mabalako health zone, the response team, and local political figures to strengthen prevention measures in schools.
“The health situation is worrying here in the commune of Mangina in general, particularly in schools where five schools have been affected. There are three primary schools with five cases and two secondary schools with two cases, for a total of seven cases in schools. This is a very concerning situation. Therefore, we are requesting the personal involvement of the area's chief medical officer, the response team, and political actors to ensure that schools are provided with preventative supplies. It is also essential to strengthen preventative measures specifically within schools,” pleads Muhindo Musubao Kiwanza, president of SYNECATH Mangina.
This teachers' rights advocacy structure in Mangina is particularly advocating for schools to be provided with appropriate prevention kits, designed to protect students, schoolchildren and teaching staff against the risks of contamination.
Through this alert, SYNECATH of Mangina calls on health authorities, response teams and local officials to act quickly in order to better protect schools from the threat of Ebola.
On the ground, the conditions for prevention remain worrying. Several schools in Mangina do not have sufficient handwashing facilities, which complicates the implementation of preventative measures.
Despite these difficulties, school officials are continuing their efforts to enforce health guidelines. The union, however, believes that a rapid strengthening of protective measures is essential to limit the risk of transmission and safeguard the health of school communities.
The Ebola epidemic declared last May has caused 4,602 deaths out of 9,552 confirmed cases in the country, representing a case fatality rate of 48.5%. Eight of the 26 provinces are affected: Ituri, North Kivu, South Kivu, Tshopo, Haut-Uele, Bas-Uele, Sud-Ubangi and Nord-Ubangi.
