How is Ebola treated, and what happens after recovery? There is no cure for Ebola, but early medical care can improve survival. Treatment focuses on supporting the body through the infection, while survivors may need to follow additional public health guidance even after recovery. Understanding what happens before, during and after treatment can help save lives. If you suspect exposure to Ebola or develop symptoms, seek care at the nearest health facility or dial *719# for guidance.

From strengthening primary healthcare to expanding digital health innovation, Kenya continues to make bold strides toward becoming a regional hub for healthcare excellence. At the 2026 Nation Health Summit we highlighted key milestones driving the country’s healthcare transformation agenda — including the deployment of over 107,000 Community Health Promoters, the registration of over 30 million Kenyans under the Social Health Authority, expansion of specialised treatment services, and investments in local pharmaceutical and vaccine manufacturing. Indeed with this trajectory ,Kenya and East Africa have the potential to become a global centre for quality healthcare, medical research, innovation, and health workforce development through strategic partnerships, technology, and people-centred health systems. #NationHealthSummit2026 #UHC #HealthyNation

The evaluation of ischaemic heart disease is increasingly moving beyond a “one-test-fits-all” model. CTCA, stress echo, CMR, nuclear imaging & invasive physiology each answer different clinical questions — the challenge is knowing when to use what.
