ebola outbreak spreading with the death toll already at 1600 the virus reaches the crowded city of goma on the border with rwanda the world health organization describing the new case as a potential game changer. i bring to our viewers on p.b.s. in the united states and all around the world welcome germany's arsal of fun and has announced that she will step down as the country's defense minister and a big gamble for her hope is that the european parliament will vote tomorrow to give her a new job as the 1st. female president of the european commission now that outcome is far from certain underlying faces skepticism from parliamentary groups angered at the way she was forced on them by national leaders as a 3rd choice candidate so she has been on a charm offensive making promises to win over. keeping up with. not an easy task last week. she was on the move constantly meeting almost all of the political groups of the e.u. parliament. she needs to convince enough parliamentarians that she's the right woman for the commission presidency and that could be a problem especially with the social

since then the extreme constant transmission for the norse off goma our fear is always been that if it spread to a place like oh my that we could then move quite quickly to other areas for now we have not the 2nd case that is coming to this 1st case which is good news but all of the high alert. as we heard there is a vaccine that's been proven to be very effective but there is a shortage why is that why isn't it more available so already during this outbreak more than 150000 people have been vaccinated i don't think anyone would have thought last year that this many doses would have been required for the outbreak which was very small confined area i think in general. just to see a need has or has been overwhelming the other part is the cost and just budget and ability often there isn't much of a blow on the global market so we need greater stocks and we need tons to pay for the bills is doubly need on the ground to carry beyond the vaccine what needs to happen now to make sure that ebola doesn't spread further. actually the key issues are not medical in nature we have today we have tre

has been confirmed by the new many star health and this man we're talking about was a resident of goma but was working in another area touring region a mining area need to the region which is one of the affected areas so he started feeling sick days after he arrived back in goma and tests were done on him 2 days ago and yesterday afternoon it was confirmed that indeed he has a dollar and now he is dead 2 people in goal man more than a 1000000 people live there very worried indeed i've also spoken to a wild health organization official who said that people should keep calm they say that they are prepared for this is then surely the of for a long time and that they are able to contain the situation these officials were telling me that they have set up hand washing point in different parts of the city the treatment centers are well equipped they have enough personnel so telling people of government to keep calm but also keep the jewel make sure that they use the washing the washing areas make sure that the environment is clean that there is no unnecessary contact with each other but as yo

and trigger more international aid the warning comes after the 1st of all a case was confirmed in goma a city of 2000000 people that neighbors for want. border with the democratic republic of congo health workers in yellow vests checking travel as temperatures before allowing them to enter just across the border in the city of goma the death of a traveling pastor has sparked fears the disease could spread. the outbreak has been declared a public health emergency of international concern by the world health organization . but the w.h.o. has stopped short of calling it a global threat saying the virus can still be contained regionally without travel bans that does not. any less strict sions on travel or trade which rather than stopping it. can actually hamper the fight so i dressed street sions for people to use informal and border crossings increasing the potential for the spread of diseases. of all the vaccine is proving highly effective but a looming shortage of the drug has health officials worried dosages have been hard to prevent a shortage that we have a gap there is a limitation

goma, in the east of the drc.han two million, mostly traders who are constantly on the move. an outbreak of ebola here could be devastating. as they trudged on up north, the city prepared. last weekend, its health systems were put to the test. these brothers say their uncle drove the bus on which an ebola patient travelled. the uncle later paid them a visit. now they have come here to be vaccinated. they told us that this vaccine don't prevent you at 100% from ebola. that's why i am still afraid a little bit. people who have been in contact with patients and those around them are advised to get the jab. so far in the democratic republic of congo, more than 165,000 people have been vaccinated. this is still an experimental vaccine, but experts believe that it has played a big role in preventing the further spread of the disease. rwanda, just beyond this gate, is on alert. the conditions here showjust how bad things could get if a bigger outbreak hit the city. the livelihoods of all these people depend on cross—bord

things escalated this week after the first case was detected in the city of goma, which is home to aroundon people. gareth barlow has the latest. in the democratic republic of the congo, ebola has wrought death and devastation. now, the world health organization has declared an international emergency. to prevent further spread, the committee recommended that i declare an emergency of international concern. i have accepted that advice. the warning is the most severe the who can make. it is only the fourth occasion it has done so. it is time for the world to take notice, with the stark message for those who care to listen. once again, the democratic republic of the congo needs help to tackle the ebola virus. tragically, the drc is no stranger to the disease, which was first identified there in 1976. since august, more than 1,600 people have been killed, with about 12 new cases reported every day. between 2014 and 2016, more than 11,000 people were killed in an epidemic that killed people across swathes of africa. tackling the disease has proved difficult. the region is blighted by conflict

necessarily do much more than what we have been doing what was happen when this person arrived in goma he was immediately identified by people who had already been trained who'd already been prepared to respond very rapidly so what is different now is that the response has moved rapidly into action in goma before we had large numbers of teams on the ground preparing but now they've actually had to take action and i have to say they took very effective action the unfortunate man was taken to the old a treatment center that has been set up by partners in a safe along with the ministry of health and they treated him immediately so even though it was an event we didn't want to happen we did expect it would happen and so far the response there has been very effective i mentioned in the introduction to this visit a couple of your responders have been murdered why is this happening. it's very complicated and with each attack and we have heard over a 100 attacks on health workers it happens not just health workers but health facilities or health vehicles like ambulances when you go back and lo

the country where there is a bowler who was confirmed to have the disease he has died and because goma is a huge city one of the major cities in the r.c.c. and also a gateway to other countries as well that's why this meeting was called and as you mentioned. the director says that this could potentially be a game to change it but there's a lot of questions the committee members will be looking into because declaring this an emergency could also mean closures could also mean some airlines refusing to fly to see which could eventually harm the process so committee members looking into all that. public are my agency has only been declared 4 times including the outbreak of ebola in west africa way 11000 people died but lizabeth health workers have been talking to say. that they need this declared a health emergency they're dealing with a disease that is going out of control they are talking about not just dealing with this disease but also a complex web of issues including insecurity people do not trust health workers and some are saying that this disease has been brought by. for political
