Ebola Ravages Eastern Congo Again
Description
A six-month-old girl’s funeral marks the latest tragedy in Congo’s deadliest Ebola outbreak yet, as the Bundibugyo strain—untreatable, unvaccinated against, and spreading fast—claims lives across eastern Congo and into Uganda. With nearly 900 cases and over 200 deaths, this outbreak dwarfs past epidemics, fueled by community resistance to burial protocols and a critical shortage of protective gear for frontline workers. The loss of a child underscores the urgency: indifference is not an option as the virus threatens to infect tens of thousands.
