世界银行周三在一份声明中宣布，将提供9300万美元的新资金，以加强非洲地区的埃博拉疫情应对工作，当时刚果民主共和国正在努力遏制当前的疫情。
The World Bank has announced $93 million in new funding to strengthen the Ebola response in the African region as the Democratic Republic of Congo battles to contain the current outbreak, according to a statement Wednesday.
声明称，其中8000万美元将用于加强刚果受影响地区的疾病监测、实验室能力、临床病例管理、感染预防与控制以及社区参与。
The statement said $80 million would strengthen disease surveillance, laboratory capacity, clinical case management, infection prevention and control, and community engagement in affected areas in Congo.
“卫生紧急情况不等人，我们也没有等待，”世界银行刚果事务部门主任阿尔贝·祖法克说。
“Health emergencies don’t wait and neither did we,” said World Bank Division Director for Congo Albert Zeufack.
据卫生部最新通报，自5月宣布疫情爆发以来，刚果的确诊埃博拉病例已达9066例，其中包括4381例死亡。
The number of confirmed Ebola cases in Congo has reached 9,066, including 4,381 deaths, since the outbreak declaration in May, according to the latest Health Ministry update.
该疫情已波及七个省份：上韦莱省、伊图里省、北基伍省、南基伍省、下韦莱省、乔波省和南乌班吉省。
The epidemic has affected seven provinces: Haut-Uele, Ituri, North Kivu, South Kivu, Bas-Uele, Tshopo and South-Ubangi.
资金还将帮助维持伊图里省（疫情中心）的孕产妇和儿童健康服务，以免疫情增加妇女和新生儿的风险。
Financing will also help sustain maternal and child health services in Ituri, the epicenter of the disease, so that the outbreak does not increase risks for women and newborns.
声明称，资金还将帮助保护受影响社区的生计，并使儿童能够继续安全上学。
It will also help protect livelihoods in affected communities and enable children to continue attending school safely, according to the statement.
世界银行表示，在整个地区，通过“卫生应急准备、应对和恢复力计划”，另外1300万美元的融资将加强11个区域国家的应急准备、应对和恢复力。
Across the region, $13 million in additional financing would strengthen emergency preparedness, response and resilience in 11 regional countries through the Health Emergency Preparedness, Response and Resilience program, said the bank.
5月，在刚果和乌干达宣布埃博拉疫情爆发后，非洲疾病控制与预防中心（非洲疾控中心）警告称，10个非洲国家面临疫情高风险，包括南苏丹、卢旺达、肯尼亚、赞比亚、中非共和国、坦桑尼亚、埃塞俄比亚、安哥拉、刚果共和国和布隆迪。

虽然乌干达已宣布无埃博拉疫情，但肯尼亚上周报告了首例来自刚果的输入性病例。
While Uganda has been declared Ebola-free, Kenya last week reported its first imported case from Congo.
