Abstract: This is an emergency request to rapidly evaluate current knowledge, attitudes, and prevention and control practices regarding Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) in Guinea using nationally representative methods. The rapid assessment aims to identify barriers and gaps in knowledge, attitudes, and practices that contribute to the persisting Ebola outbreak in Guinea. This data is urgently needed to achieve CDC goals to move toward zero new cases.

Emergency Justfication: National information about core KAP indicators are urgently needed in Guinea to better understand the drivers of this persistent epidemic, even as incidence rates drop. Information of value includes use of prevention practices, sources of care sought for EVD symptoms, stigma and discrimination faced by ill persons or EVD survivors, exposure to EVD information, and or preferred sources of EVD-related health care, education, or community engagement channels as well as the reach and impact of EVD health promotion activities since the start of this outbreak. It is urgent to start this assessment by mid-May before the start of the rainy season when many roads become impassable.
