“During the Ebola outbreak, I personally used various means, such as the media, to raise awareness about protective measures. We had broadcasts in the media about the necessary hygiene measures, and we taught by example in our health trainings. Of course, there was a certain amount of resistance because of our culture, but in the end, people understood the importance of hygiene, even though some of them were neglecting it. So, we insisted on prevention.”
