The lack of an African research ethics framework during epidemic emergencies (EE) has been a glaring concern
amongst African scholars for decades. In the context of major public health emergencies of continental and global health concern over the last five years, such as Ebola in 2019, COVID in 202

0 and Mpox in 2024, and ongoing epidemics, including those of pandemic potential, the need for such a framework is evident. Ethics frameworks for research during emergencies have been published (World Health Organisation, 2016; Nuffield Council on Bioethics, 2020). However, there is currently no African and continent-wide, coherent guidance that promotes African values, elaborated by Africans for hosting research during EE on the continent. To address this gap, the African Centre for Disease Control convened an Ethics Working Group (Ethics WG) to develop an African
framework that embraces dominant African principles/values that might guide the ethical conduct of research in

Filoviral hemorrhagic fever (FHF) is caused by ebolaviruses and marburgviruses, which both belongto the family Filoviridae. Egyptian fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus) are the most likely natural reservoir for marburg viruses and entry into caves and mines that they stay in has often been associated
...
with outbreaks of MVD. On the other hand, the natural reservoir for ebola viruses remains elusive;however, handling of wild animal carcasses has been associated with some outbreaks of EVD. In thelast two decades, there has been an increase in the incidence of FHF outbreaks in Africa, some beingcaused by a newly found virus and some occurring in previously unaffected areas such as Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, in which the most recent EVD outbreak occurred in 2014. Indeed, the predicted geographic distribution of filoviruses and their potential reservoirs in Africa includes manycountries in which FHF has not been reported. To minimize the risk of virus dissemination inpreviously unaffected areas, there is a need for increased investment in health infrastructure in African countries, policies to facilitate collaboration between health authorities from different countries, implementation of outbreak control measures by relevant multi-disciplinary teams and education of the populations at risk.
