Congo’s Deadliest Ebola Outbreak Yet | Texas News

Congo’s worst Ebola outbreak yet is spiraling out of control, with over 2,300 deaths and nearly 5,000 cases — spreading faster than any previous outbreak. A deadly Bundibugyo strain, with no approved treatments or vaccines, is hitting communities hard as health workers strike, rebels disrupt efforts, and misinformation fuels distrust. With 100+ new cases and 30 deaths in just one day, WHO warns the pace is “exceptional,” and UN officials are pledging $30.5 million and 20 more staff to urgently scale up response before it becomes even deadlier than the 2014-2016 West African epidemic.
