Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs through MASHAV and
the African Division, together with the Ministry of Health’s Public
Health Directorate, are joining the efforts to prevent the spread of
Ebola in African nations which have not yet been affected by the
disease.
Israel will contribute by sharing its vast knowledge in the
fields of public health and in the prevention of the spread of
infectious diseases. This will be done in coordination with the World
Health Organization's efforts to stop the disease.
Two Israeli doctors, experts in public health and infectious
diseases Dr. Roee Singer from the Ministry of Health and Dr. Pnina
Shitrit from Meir Hospital, will depart for Cameroon on Sunday (7
Sept.). There they will share with the local Ministry of Health
professional teams and medical staff methods to prevent infection by the
Ebola virus and other infectious diseases. This seven-day professional
program is the first step in Israel's efforts to assist in preventing
the spread of Ebola.
