Description

Actual CPV code is '75211200 Foreign Economic-Aid Related Services'.

Prompt laboratory diagnosis is a crucial enabler for reduction of Ebola transmission. It is needed both for effective case management, and for generating data to inform an effective response to the epidemic. It contributes to the goal of reducing Ebola transmission by:
• Reducing the time for patients with Ebola to be referred for treatment;
• Enabling patients who test negative for Ebola to return to the community as quickly as possible: minimising the amount of time they spend in Community Care Centres, and thereby their risk of infection;
• Generating data which can be used for surveillance and to monitor epidemic trends and guide an effective response.
