Marburg virus outbreak in Rwanda

Yes, the Marburg virus is in Rwanda. My kid is actually in that country right now. They have pulled all not mandatory folks from the hospitals…which would be folks like her who are there doing teaching/mentoring/modeling. The program she is with has mandated they not use any public transportation like buses, moto taxis, etc.

They are teaching remotely as far as I know.

Contact tracing continues to be done with those affected being isolated. This virus is similar to Ebola.
