Congo Ebola Cases Rise to 7222
A new Ebola case has been recorded in South Uvira Province in northwestern Democratic Republic of Congo, marking the first outside the traditional outbreak center in the eastern part of the country. The infected individual died after contracting the "Bundibujjo" strain and left eastern Congo on July 10th to visit abroad before returning to the border region. Efforts to trace contacts are ongoing, but a lack of trained personnel and funding poses significant obstacles to controlling the spread, especially as the outbreak expands geographically. This outbreak is the second largest worldwide, after the West Africa epidemic between 2014 and 2016, which claimed over 11,000 lives.
