ABOUT 30 countries have health systems that are as dangerously weak as the
ones that allowed Ebola to ravage Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, the
World Health Organisation warned Thursday.
.
The UN health agency stressed the urgency of learning the lessons drawn
from the outbreak that has killed more than 11,100 people in west Africa,
calling for strengthening of health systems so they can rapidly detect and
counter looming disasters.
.
We must reverse the trend in global health where we wait for the fire to
flare up, run to put it out but then forget to fireproof the building,
said senior WHO official Ruediger Krech.
.
The world, he told reporters, had to create a health system built to
withstand shocks whether from an outbreak like Ebola, a natural disaster
or a financial crisis.
.
The fragile health systems in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Libera, weakened by
conflict and poverty, were an important factor in Ebolas rapid spread
through the three countries last year.
.
And Krech said at least 28 other countries worldwide, mainly in Africa,
but also in Asia and Latin America, had similarly weak systems.
.
The list includes Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Madagascar, Burundi,
Sudan, Afghanistan and Haiti.
.
So our work will not be limited to west Africa, he said.
