UN reports Ebola death every 30 min in DRC
The article discusses the outbreak of the Ebola virus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it has caused a death every 30 minutes, making it the fastest-spreading outbreak ever. The United Nations has called on the international community to strengthen response efforts through increased funding and coordination. Some countries have donated amounts reaching up to $300 million to combat the virus, which has claimed the lives of more than 2,128 people out of over 4,500 confirmed cases since last May. Additional teams have been deployed to address the spread, with a focus on improving safe burial practices, expanding treatment capacity, and contact tracing, in an attempt to contain the epidemic, which is the deadliest in the history of the disease.
