The outbreak remains active in three provinces in the DRC.

We have the Ituri province area.

where commercial flights have now been suspended in the capital, Bonia.

We also have North Kivu and South Kivu.

And we know that the virus has spread to rebel-controlled territories, which is quite difficult for health authorities.

to get to in order to contain the spread.

And it's sometimes in very remote areas where health facilities are non-existent or there are poor health infrastructure in those particular areas.

So it's really very difficult for the authorities to kind of control or prevent the spread of the virus.

And we know that this particular strain has no proven vaccine or treatments.

Funding has been a very big challenge in the fight against this virus.

Africa's CDC on Saturday said that they needed about $300 million to contain the spread.

And so far, it's the Gates Foundation which has announced an initial $50 million in emergency funding to support the Ebola response in the DRC.

And we know that the UN has also allocated about $60 million to support the fight against the virus.

So funding remains a very big challenge.

You need money to be able to support frontline health workers who are trying very hard to ensure that they contain the spread of the virus.

They believed in me and told me I can definitely achieve my dream of becoming a pilot.

Because I can't go to school, to university.
