<p>We established networks for death reporting at health facility and community level. We oriented Village Health Teams, parish coordinators, funeral homes, police and security organs, village chairpersons, media stations. Reviewed facility records and activated an alert desk. Upon receiving a death alert, we dispatched teams (laboratory, surveillance officers and morticians) to verify and collect samples from carderviors (arterial blood and/or buccal swab) for SUVD testing. Populated a death-line list by socio demographics, place of death, date of death, source of alert, test result. We conducted a descriptive analysis of death data.</p>
