Congo Starts Ebola Vaccination
The Democratic Republic of the Congo has launched an Ebola vaccination campaign in Kisesangani, aiming to slow the spread of the disease, which has caused over 5,700 confirmed cases and 2,744 deaths so far, with a case fatality rate of approximately 48%. The campaign includes vaccinating frontline workers and healthcare providers using the ERVEBO vaccine, with more than 50,000 doses received, of which 70,000 are approved for use. The World Development Organization is conducting studies to test the level of protection offered by the vaccine. The outbreak is expanding under difficult conditions, despite ongoing efforts to control the spread, in comparison to the largest outbreak in history during 2014-2016.
