Ebola spreads to new Congo province
Congo's Ebola outbreak has expanded to a sixth province after a death occurred in Bas-Uele, with the virus spreading rapidly across eastern regions. The outbreak has caused over 2,100 deaths out of more than 4,500 cases, progressing faster than previous outbreaks, and is hampered by challenges such as health worker strikes, insecurity, and misinformation. Clinical trials for treatments and vaccines are underway, including testing two new vaccines specific to the Bundibugyo virus and exploring the use of existing Ebola vaccines.
