Sidiki is continuing to reach out to districts in Guinea to inform and educate people about Ebola. He brings hand washing stations and good words and song to help people understand they can help themselves and not to be afraid of health workers. The biggest obstacle to defeating Ebola is fear and misunderstanding. 
This particular district had refused in the past to let health care workers in because of fear and mistrust. Because of Sidiki's intervention the elders have agreed to open their community to health care. Trust is key.
