Episode Details

Ebola in Congo is spiraling out of control with over 4,000 confirmed cases and more than 2,000 deaths—now the second-largest outbreak ever, after West Africa. With rebel activity, broken roads, and healthcare workers on strike over unpaid wages, containment is nearly impossible. This strain has no approved vaccine or treatment yet, though trials are underway. The virus likely spread as early as February, but was missed or misdiagnosed as malaria or typhoid, letting it fester. Officials are scrambling to respond, but the scale is overwhelming—especially in remote areas where help can’t reach.
