Local Red Cross volunteers continue to play a crucial role in the Ebola response. Approximately 1,500 volunteers are working on the front lines, helping to combat the spread of the virus. Their efforts have enabled safe and dignified burials, as well as the dissemination of life-saving information to the community.

The volunteers' work has reached over 240,000 people, helping to counter rumors and misinformation. Community feedback has also been collected, with nearly 4,000 pieces gathered between late July and early August. This feedback is crucial in understanding the concerns and needs of the local community.
