Ebola causes death every 30 minutes in Congo
The Ebola virus outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is the fastest ever, claiming the life of someone every 30 minutes since it emerged in May. To date, there have been over 2,128 deaths out of more than 4,500 cases. The United Nations is calling for urgent international action through expanded response efforts, increased medical teams, and improved contact tracing operations, with more than $330 million allocated to combat the epidemic. There remains a critical need for additional resources to address the spread of the virus, which is transmitted through contact with body fluids and threatens the lives of many in six areas within Congo and beyond.
