Chinese medical workers are providing medical assistance to African countries affected by the current Ebola outbreak.

A team of Chinese experts arrived in the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) on Tuesday to help contain the spread of Ebola.

Their visit comes two weeks after the World Health Organization declared the Ebola outbreak in northeastern DRC a global health emergency.

The team says it is ready to work alongside local health authorities to strengthen surveillance, prevention, and response measures.

They also called for international cooperation to jointly tackle the health crisis.

"By dispatching experts to boost Africa's public health capacity, China has forged a tripartite model: Chinese technology, African application, and international standards. This opens a new pathway for global health governance. Our Ebola aid and broader anti-epidemic strategies are deeply rooted in the vision of a global community of health for all. To succeed, we must establish a multilateral coordination mechanism. No single nation or organization can tackle this alone. Effective containment requires international organizations and countries uniting to support the frontlines," said Yu Wenzhou, deputy director of the National Immunization Program Center under the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

In Uganda, healthcare workers at the China-Uganda Friendship Hospital are balancing the need to prevent the spread of the virus with the need to keep essential medical services running.

Strict screening measures, isolation facilities, and enhanced protective protocols have become part of daily operations.
