Risk factors and control of Ebola virus disease epidemic in Sierra Leone

2014年塞拉利昂爆发严重埃博拉病毒病疫情，包括不良风俗习惯、自然气候、医疗基础薄弱、医院内传播等因素，是这次疫情流行的重要影响因素，采取科学宣教、规范丧葬、建立诊疗机构、培训医务人员、管理疾病幸存者、完善社区疾病监督系统等措施，可有效预防和控制疫情的进一步发展。

An outbreak of Ebola virus disease （EVD） occurred in Sierrs Leone, the West Africa, in 2014. The medical teams from China were dispatched to the country to help control the epidemic. It has been found that the virus is transmitted to human beings from wild animals, such as fi-uit bats and monkeys of whom the local residents hunted for food, and that was the way how the virus spread in the human population. Bad burial customs, natural climates, backward medical facilities, are considered being the risk factors. Community engagement would play the key in order to successfully control the outbreaks. A positive outbreak-control relies on applying a package of interventions, namely case management, surveillance and contact tracing, a good laboratory service, safe burials, and social mobilization.
