1DR Congo: Containing the Ebola OutbreakEbola: Fifehezana ny areti-mandringana Ebola
2In late December an outbreak of the highly contagious Ebola virus was confirmed in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo).Voaporofo tokoa ny fisian'ilay valan'aretina mora mifindra, antsoina hoe tazo Ebola any amin'ny Repoblika Demaokratikan'i Congo.
3The outbreak is believed to have infected more than 36 people, including at least 12 deaths.Heverina fa efa mihoatra ny 36 ny isan'ny olona tratran'ity aretina ity ary 12 raha kely indrindra ny isan'ny maty.
4DR Congo is trying to contain the outbreak, while some neighboring countries are also taking precautions.Miezaka ny hifehy ny fielezan'ity aretina ity i RD Congo, ary manao izay hisorohana ny fahatongavany any aminy kosa ny firenena manodidina.
5Ebola (technically known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever) is a virus that invokes fear in many people because there is no cure, the virus is easily transmitted between people (through contact with body fluids), and it is usually fatal.Otrik'aretina miteraka tahotra amin'ny olona maro noho ny tsy fisian'ny fitsaboana azy ny Ebola [izay antsoina ara-pahasalamana hoe tazo (mampandoa rà) Ebola], mora mifindra eo amin'ny samy olona noho ny fifampikasokasohan'ny hatsembohana amin'ny vatana ny otrik'aretina, ary mahafaty mandrakariva.
6Amanda Taub, posting on Wronging Rights, describes the virus:Milazalaza ny momba ny otrik'aretina i Amanda Taub, mpanoratra ao amin'ny Wronging Rights:
7“Ebola, for those not familiar, is basically the worst possible thing that your ‘flu-like symptoms' could be a sign of.“Ho an'izay tsy mbola mahalala, dia ny Ebola no azo heverina ho “aretin-kohaka” tena ratsy indrindra.
8It starts with a headache and sore throat, accompanied by a high fever and muscle weakness.Miandoha amin'ny aretin'an-doha sy tenda aloha, miaraka amin'ny tazo mahery sy fahalemen'ny hozatra.
9Victims then develop vomiting, diarrhea, and impaired liver and kidney function.Mandoa sy mivalana izay tratrany, ary tsy manao ny asany ara-dalàna ny aty sy ny voa.
10These late-stage symptoms are often accompanied by internal and external bleeding, as white blood cell and platelet counts drop precipitously.Izany trangan'aretina izany moa dia miaraka amin'ny faharatrana anatiny sy ivelany, satria mihena vetivety teo ny isan'ny sela fotsy.
11This can include bleeding from the eyes and mouth, which gives the victims a particularly frightening appearance.”Tafiditra amin'izany ny fikorianan'ny ra avy eny amin'ny maso sy ny molotra, izay tena mahatonga izay tratrany ho mampatahotra jerena tokoa.”
12This recent Ebola outbreak was confirmed in the Congolese district of Mweka in the country's western Kasai province.Voamarina fa any amin'ny distrikan'i Mweka any amin'ny faritany andrefan'i Kasai no nitrangan'ity valan'aretina ity.
13It is suspected that one of the sources behind this outbreak are infected dead monkeys, which could have transferred the disease to hunters and women.Ahiahiana ho avy amin'ny fahafatesan'ny gidro nitondra ny otrik'aretina ka namindra tamin'ny mpihaza sy ny vehiavy [vadny?] no anisan'ny nipoiran'izao valan'aretina izao.
14In response, neighboring countries are taking precautions.Tsy maintsy nandray ny andraikiny hisoroka ny firenena manodidina.
15Angola has increased border restrictions with DR Congo and Tanzania is also on Ebola alert.Nampitomboan'i Angola ny fepetram-pandalovana sisintany amin'i RD Congo ary efa mandeha ihany koa ny Fanairana momba ny Ebola any Tanzania.
16A post on South African Catholic elaborates:Mamelabelatra izany ny lahatsoratra iray ao amin'ny South African Catholic :
17“Recently, Angola, closed off their border with the affected region of DRC, Congo, having placed their police and military on high alert.Vao nanidy ny sisintaniny amin'ny faritra tratran'ny Ebola ao RD Congo i Angola ka efa nametrapetraka ny polisy sy ny miaramila ao anatin'ny filazana loza fanairana.
18Ebola has spread across the border to Sudan before, and countries in the region are edgy, due to the mostly lethal, and incurable nature of the disease.Efa niampita ny sisintanin'i Soudan manko ny Ebola ka maro ny firenena ao amin'ny faritra no sorisorena, satria sady mahafaty no tsy mbola misy fanafany ny aretina.
19The Ebola disease is named after a river in the DR Congo.”Nahazo anarana avy tamin'ny anaran-drenirano iray ao RD Congo manko ny Ebola.
20A post on Ending Extreme Poverty in the Congo points out that there have been no travels bans to DR Congo yet, though:Avoitran'ny lahatsoratra iray ao amin'ny Ending Extreme Poverty in the Congo fa na dia tsy mbola voarara aza ny fivezivezena any RD Congo, dia:
21“Tanzania is on alert against the Ebola outbreak.Efa mandeha ny fanaitairana any Tanzania.
22Angola closed its borders.Nanakatona ny sisintaniny i Angola.
23The World Health Organization (WHO) has NOT advised a travel ban.TSY nanolo-kevitra handrarana ny fivezivezena ny sampan-draharahan'ny FIrenena mikambana momba ny fahasalamana OMS.
24Even last year when 187 people died, a travel ban was NOT established.TSY natao mihitsy izany fandrarana izany tamin'ny herintaona na dia efa 187 aza no matiny.
25If Congolese's poor were more mobile, and if it was warranted, a travel ban may be prudent.Raha toa moa mpivezivezy kokoa ny Kongoley, ary raha voamarina izany, dia fanehoam-pitandremana kokoa ny mandrara ny fivezivezena.
26However without good private or public transportation, it is unlikely a sick person could make it to Tanzania's border.Saingy noho ny tsy fisian'ny fitaterana manokana na an'ny fanjakana mba tsara, dia mety ho sarotra ihany ny hahatongavan'ity aretina ity anyamin'ny faritry Tanzania.
27About 125 miles away, the Angola border is closer to outbreak area.”Tokotokony ho 125 amily eo ho eo ve koa, ny sisintanin'i Angola no akaiky azy kokoa.
28This is the fourth Ebola outbreak in DR Congo since 1976; the last one happened in 2007.Faninefany izao no nisy valan'aretina Ebola tany RD Congo hatramin'ny 1976; tamin'ny 2007 no nitrangany farany.

30MSF has sent a team of experts to Kasai to try and contain this outbreak as well.Efa nandefa ekipana manam-pahaizana manokana tany Kasai ny MSF hifehezana ihany koa ny valan'aretina.
31But Viceroy, blogging on Superstrain, doesn't have high hopes:Saingy tsy dia manam-panantenana amin'izany loatra i Viceroy mamaham-bolongana ao amin'ny Superstrain :
32“If the past is any indication of how things will turn out in the present, we will likely see the death toll of this outbreak rise considerably.”Raha oharina avy amin'ny tranga taloha ny misy ankehitriny, dia mety hiakatra avo dia avo tokoa ny taham-pahafatesana.
33Blogger JShaffer is saddened by the news of another outbreak in DR Congo, as is the blogger of this post on the Foreign Policy Association's Africa blog:
34“As if circumstances are not difficult in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the country has now seen a new outbreak of Ebola. The DRC is a country that never seems to catch a break and rarely makes its own good fortune.”Niteraka alahelo tamin'ny mpamaham-bolongana JShaffer ity trangana valan'aretina hafa any RD Congo ity, raha jerena ao amin'ity lahatsoratra iray ity izay nampitainy tao amin'ny bolongan'ny Foreign Policy Association's Africa :
35However, pO157, commenting on their post on Trees & Things, tries to be a little more optimistic about the Ebola situation:Raha toa moa ka tsy sarotra ny ny toe-draharaha tany amin'ny Repoblika demaokratikan'i Congo, dia tratran'ny valan'aretina Ebola indray ny firenena.
36“The only good thing about the situation is the relatively well isolated locations it [Ebola] keeps breaking out in.Tsy mba afa-nisento mihitsy i RDC ary tsindraindray tadiavina vao mba nahombiazana
37As long as the folks coming down with this ailment don't end up on a plane or something we should be okay.Na izany aza dia mba nijery lafitsaran-javatra ihany i pO157 raha nilaza ny heviny momba ny Ebola tao amin'ny Trees & Things:
38Given the advances in science and medicine I think if they can hold the disease to the Congo for the next ~5-10 years then Ebola will be done.”
