当埃博拉病毒席卷刚果民主共和国（DRC）东部之际，确保各家庭满足基本食物需求对于遏制这种致命疾病的传播至关重要。\n\n这是世界粮食计划署（WFP）发出的信息。该机构呼吁国际社会为当地民众提供更多支持，尤其是那些远离拯救生命的埃博拉治疗中心、身处偏远地区的饥饿人群。\n\n世界粮食计划署刚果民主共和国国家主任David Stevenson最近对联合国新闻表示：“埃博拉是一场健康危机，这是毫无疑问的。”\n\n“但与此同时，由于埃博拉出现在刚果东部，而该地区又如此悲惨地受到冲突、粮食不安全和流离失所的困扰，因此需要采取综合应对方法。”\n\n自大约50年前首次发现该病毒以来，刚果民主共和国已与埃博拉病毒进行了17次抗争，其东部长期以来一直是一个动荡不安的地区。\n\n自当前疫情于5月15日宣布爆发以来，世界粮食计划署一直坚守在第一线。此次疫情由罕见的本迪布焦（Bundibugyo）毒株引起，是有记录以来传播最快的疫情，仅在最初的100天内就发生了5500多起病例，并造成2642人死亡。\n\nStevenson先生访问了此次危机的中心伊图里省（Ituri province），并目睹了多年的战乱、流离失所和缺乏充足食物如何影响了当地社区。

As Ebola sweeps across the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), ensuring families meet their basic food needs is crucial to halt the spread of the deadly disease.

That’s the message from the World Food Programme (WFP), which is calling for greater international support for the population, particularly hungry people in remote areas far from lifesaving Ebola treatment centres.

“Ebola is a health crisis, there’s no question about that,” David Stevenson, WFP Country Director for the DRC, recently told UN News.

“But at the same time, since Ebola is in eastern Congo and that area is so tragically affected by conflict, by food insecurity, by displacement, it needs to have a comprehensive approach.”

Eastern DRC has long been a restive region in a country that has battled Ebola 17 times since the virus was first discovered some 50 years ago. 

WFP has been on the frontlines since the current outbreak was declared on 15 May. Caused by the rare Bundibugyo species, it is the fastest on record, with more than 5,500 cases and 2,642 deaths in the first 100 days alone. 

Mr. Stevenson has visited Ituri province, the epicentre of the crisis, and has seen how years of fighting, displacement and lack of access to sufficient food have affected local communities.
