5 SHARES Share TweetNAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 1- The Kenya Medical Practitioners Pharmacists and Dentists’ Union (KMPDU) wants the government to educate medics on the Ebola Virus identification and management in the event of an outbreak. “KMPDU is urging the MOH to employ more critical health care staff to address the constraints that may arise in the event of an Ebola virus outbreak in Kenya,” he said. He stated that this will ensure efficient well-equipped response and surveillance response function to manage all suspected Ebola cases immediately. “Set up isolation centers and stock with necessary medical and equipment supplies and provide adequate personal preventive equipment (PPEs) in case of suspected Ebola virus in the country,” he stated. In a televised press briefing on Wednesday, Museveni said some 19 others classified as probable Ebola cases had also died, but said they were buried before they could be tested for infection.
