Why is the Ebola outbreak in DRC spreading so fast?

from dc · host Salai Dawtcemsang

Why is the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo spreading so fast? We speak to a reporter who is there who says the aid response is only just beginning. Also on the programme: Pope Leo has warned of potential risks to humanity posed by artificial intelligence; and is there any chance of the Iran-US conflict leading to the expansion of the Abraham accords?
