Prepare physically and mentally before your mission. Stay updated with vaccinations and be well-informed to avoid diseases like Ebola. Follow specific precautions during your mission and report any health problems to the health referent. Ensure a healthy stay by avoiding incidents and staying focused. After your mission, participate in face-to-face debriefings and follow up for 21 days to stay healthy and prevent panic in case of fever. Stay close to identified reference hospitals and be cautious of Lassa Fever in endemic zones.
