WHO says Ebola response catching up as confirmed DRC cases hit 344
The World Health Organization said on Wednesday that the world is “catching up” with the Ebola outbreak in Democratic Republic of Congo, where there have been 344 confirmed cases of the disease and 60 confirmed deaths, although challenges remain. “The outbreak had a big head start, and we’re still behind, but under the leadership of the government of DRC, we’re catching up,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press briefing. The outbreak, linked to the Bundibugyo strain of the virus, has spread to neighbouring Uganda where 15 cases have been confirmed, including one death, the agency said.
