Amid crumbling response efforts, deadly conflicts, and community resistance, health workers struggle to reach victims, while unsafe burials and poor coordination fuel rapid spread. With less than 9% of contacts monitored and aid teams forced to retreat under fire, the virus is outpacing containment—leaving the world staring at a catastrophe unfolding in real time.
