What to do when you suspect a case
- Step 1: Do NOT touch the sick person.
- Step 2: Do NOT hide them at home or try to treat them yourself.
- Step 3: Go directly to the nearest health facility 🚨. If you or another person has ANY of these — tiredness, loss of appetite, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever — go to the health facility today. Waiting is what is making people die.
- Step 4: Stay calm and provide the health team with accurate information — name, location, symptoms, who has been in contact.
- Step 5: Ask those who have had contact with the sick person to stay in the area — contact tracing will begin.
⚠️Reporting quickly saves lives — for the sick person AND for the community. Every hour of delay increases the risk of spread.⚠️
