Le directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de la sant\u00e9 au minist\u00e8re k\u00e9nyan de la Sant\u00e9, Dr Patrick Omwanda Amoth, a annonc\u00e9 l\u2019arriv\u00e9e de cette cargaison lors d\u2019une interview accord\u00e9e \u00e0 la cha\u00eene de t\u00e9l\u00e9vision Citizen TV, le dimanche 18 octobre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Nous avons \u00e9galement re\u00e7u aujourd\u2019hui une nouvelle aide en m\u00e9dicaments, avec l\u2019arriv\u00e9e d\u2019un avion charg\u00e9 de m\u00e9dicaments en provenance du Rwanda \u00bb, a-t-il d\u00e9clar\u00e9, pr\u00e9cisant que ces fournitures viendraient renforcer les moyens disponibles pour soigner les personnes infect\u00e9es.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le huiti\u00e8me cas a \u00e9t\u00e9 confirm\u00e9 apr\u00e8s le d\u00e9pistage de 38 personnes au cours de la journ\u00e9e de dimanche. Le patient est un homme de 49 ans qui travaillait comme auxiliaire hospitalier et avait \u00e9t\u00e9 en contact avec le premier malade d\u00e9clar\u00e9 au Kenya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selon Dr Amoth, cet homme pr\u00e9sentait notamment de la fi\u00e8vre, des maux de t\u00eate et des douleurs musculaires. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 plac\u00e9 en isolement et devait commencer \u00e0 recevoir des soins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les autorit\u00e9s sanitaires k\u00e9nyanes ont indiqu\u00e9 que les sept patients pr\u00e9c\u00e9demment recens\u00e9s avaient re\u00e7u des anticorps monoclonaux et r\u00e9pondaient favorablement au traitement. Plusieurs d\u2019entre eux ont manifest\u00e9 des signes d\u2019am\u00e9lioration, selon Dr Amoth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le premier cas d\u2019Ebola au Kenya a \u00e9t\u00e9 confirm\u00e9 le 6 octobre 2026 chez un homme de 40 ans arriv\u00e9 de R\u00e9publique d\u00e9mocratique du Congo (RDC), via l\u2019Ouganda. Il est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 le 5 octobre dans un h\u00f4pital de Nairobi, apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 pris en charge. Plusieurs personnes ayant \u00e9t\u00e9 en contact avec lui, notamment des membres de sa famille et des professionnels de sant\u00e9, ont ensuite \u00e9t\u00e9 test\u00e9es positives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Au 18 octobre, les autorit\u00e9s avaient identifi\u00e9 130 personnes ayant \u00e9t\u00e9 en contact avec des cas confirm\u00e9s. Parmi elles, 128 avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 retrouv\u00e9es et plac\u00e9es en quarantaine afin de limiter les risques de propagation. Le minist\u00e8re k\u00e9nyan de la Sant\u00e9 indiquait alors qu\u2019aucune transmission communautaire n\u2019avait \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9tect\u00e9e et que le risque pour la population g\u00e9n\u00e9rale demeurait faible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019\u00e9pid\u00e9mie concerne le virus Ebola de Bundibugyo, une souche pour laquelle il n\u2019existe pas de vaccin homologu\u00e9 ni de traitement sp\u00e9cifique approuv\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La prise en charge repose notamment sur les soins de soutien et le traitement des complications. Le virus se transmet principalement par contact direct avec le sang ou d\u2019autres liquides biologiques d\u2019une personne infect\u00e9e, vivante ou d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9e, ainsi qu\u2019avec des objets contamin\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
