Abstract

The combination of political, economic and security factors behind attacks on health workers and facilities during the 2018–20 Ebola outbreak in the DRC shows that we need to expand responses to epidemics beyond a focus on health aspects. Instead, a more comprehensive approach must also encompass efforts to engage, manage and transform community-based armed groups.
