[HOT] Ebola in Conakry, Guinea

[Severin Menard]

Bonjour Alexandre,

Aurais-tu des réponses aux questions que se pose la communauté HOT :
- quel MSF se trouve en Guinée ?
- que pourrions-nous cartographier en priorité (si tant est que nous
disposions d'imagerie Bing) ?
- comment cette donnée serait utilisée (sur le terrain, au siège pour la
planif, etc.) ?

Bien cordialement,

Séverin

Hi,

MSF is working on this crisis:
http://reliefweb.int/report/guinea/ebola-epidemic-declared-guinea-msf-launches-emergency-response

Considering our growing partnerships with them, I would advice to contact
them to know how we could help them the best we can. The report does not
mention which MSF branch is in the field (FYI, it is the normal way MSF
communicates, there are separate entities but working on the same goals). I
know people from MSF Spain and MSF France through CAR Activation, I will
ask them.

Sincerely,

Severin
