Episode Details

Ebola is exploding in Congo, with 72 new cases confirmed in one day—pushing total infections to 782 and deaths to 181. The outbreak, now a month old, is spiraling out of control in remote, mobile populations, overwhelming clinics and catching patients at advanced stages. Conflict-driven displacement of nearly a million people and migrant miners are making contact tracing nearly impossible. While improved reporting may explain the spike, contact tracing coverage has plummeted to just 56%. WHO and Africa CDC are racing to deploy resources, labs, and teams—but warn urgent funding is needed to stop this deadly spread before it’s too late.
