DRC's fight with the EVD (Ebola Virus Disease) was just settling when WHO declared COVID-19 to be a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) on March 12, 2020. DRC's economic growth decelerated from its pre-COVID level of 4.4% in 2019 to an estimated 0.8% in 2020. This has caused concomitant setbacks in the treatment and control of major health issues like HIV, tuberculosis, measles, rift valley fever and malaria in the country. This, coupled with civil unrest, other infectious diseases and risk to the safety of the health workers is a recipe for a 'perfect storm' waiting to unfold.
2020 年 3 月 12 日，世界卫生组织宣布 COVID-19 为国际关注的突发公共卫生事件，刚果民主共和国与埃博拉病毒病（EVD）的斗争刚刚平息。刚果民主共和国的经济增长从 2019 年的 COVID-19 前水平 4.4%放缓至 2020 年的估计 0.8%。这导致该国艾滋病毒、结核病、麻疹、裂谷热和疟疾等主要卫生问题的治疗和控制同时出现倒退。再加上内乱、其他传染病以及卫生工作者的安全风险，这是一场即将爆发的“完美风暴”。
