Abstract
Resistance has become catastrophic for the tenth Ebola Virus Disease outbreak in DR Congo. This is preventing management, contact tracing and quarantine, allowing the spread of the virus. This paper seeks to understand why the Ebola response teams are encountering resistance and occasionally physical violence. The paper sketches the local beliefs of the population regarding the Ebola Virus Disease, how the resistance emerges from social, cultural and political divergent opinions. The community resistance has been enhanced by popular revolution due to war-tension in the region. Multifactorial causes of resistance to the Ebola Virus Disease response teams have proven the need for health anthropologists to be associated for encouraging the population to cooperate.
