The role of Rwanda Field Epidemiology and Laboratory Training Program graduates and residents in response to the first Marburg Virus Disease outbreak in Rwanda
Rwanda Field epidemiology and laboratory training programs (RFELTP) build capacity to improve disease surveillance, respond to public health emergencies, and inform evidence-based decision-making to mitigate the impact of epidemics and other public health events. On September 27, 2024, Rwanda declared its first Marburg virus disease (MVD) outbreak. MVD disease is a severe haemorrhagic fever with a fatality rate ranging from 24% to 90%. We describ…
The secondary transmission pattern of Covid-19 based on contact tracing in Rwanda
INTRODUCTION: COVID-19 has shown an exceptionally high spread rate across and within countries worldwide. Understanding the dynamics of such an infectious disease transmission is critical for devising strategies to control its spread. In particular, Rwanda was one of the African countries that started COVID-19 preparedness early in January 2020, and a total lockdown was imposed when the country had only 18 COVID-19 confirmed cases known. Using in…
Investigation of Four Clusters of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (Sars-CoV-2) in Rwanda, 2020
We reported the findings of the first Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) four clusters identified in Rwanda. Case-investigations included contact elicitation, testing, and isolation/quarantine of confirmed cases. Socio-demographic and clinical data on cases and contacts were collected. A confirmed case was a person with laboratory confirmation of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PCR) while a contact was any person who had contact w…
