#MVD is a disease with #high #mortality that causes #haemorrhagic #fever, and is among the diseases that require assessment under the International Health Regulations.
On 30 March 2023, #WHO assessed the public health #risk posed by the current outbreak in #Equatorial #Guinea as #very #high at the national level, high at sub-regional level, moderate at the regional level and #low at the global level.
Since the last Disease Outbreak News on this event was published on 22 March 2023 (with data as of 21 March 2023), six additional laboratory-confirmed cases of #Marburg #virus #disease (MVD) have been reported in Equatorial Guinea.
This brings the total to 15 laboratory-confirmed and 23 probable cases since the declaration of the outbreak on 13 February 2023.
Among the laboratory confirmed there are 11 deaths (#Case #Fatality #Ratio 78.6%; for one confirmed case the outcome is unknown), and **all probable cases are dead**. 
The most affected district is Bata in Litoral province, with nine laboratory-confirmed MVD cases reported.
WHO is supporting the Ministry of Health by strengthening different response pillars, including but not limited to surveillance, including at points of entry; laboratory; case management; infection prevention and control; risk communication and community engagement.

Why did the imperial Russian government fail to prevent revolution in 1917? Were its security policies flawed? This broadly researched study of Russia's security police investigates the government's efforts to maintain order as it struggled against political opposition and threats of violence during the last decade before the Revolution. Historian Jonathan Daly brings to life the men who, often with reformist intentions, took on the task of defending Russia against political dissent and revolution from within.
