<p>The UK continues to take the Ebola outbreak in eastern DRC extremely seriously,
providing funding and technical assistance to the response. Our funding to the WHO
goes to directly support the public health response. Health workers are provided with
training, vaccination, and access to personal protection equipment to reduce the risk
of infection. We are also supporting other efforts within the response that are essential
to building community trust.</p><p> </p><p>The UK strongly condemns attacks on health
workers and facilities and will continue to support the DRC Government and UN system
to work with affected communities to ensure the safety and security of all frontline
responders. All those involved in fighting Ebola must be able to work in safety for
the benefit of those being affected by this outbreak.</p>
