Ebola Outbreak Could Be Three Times Worse | Toronto News

Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

Ebola in the DRC could be three times worse than reported, with kids under four facing a 60% fatality rate—parents and teachers are demanding schools stay closed until it’s safe. The outbreak, raging in eastern Ituri, is growing faster than ever and remains uncontrolled, with only 30-40% of cases detected. Security chaos and population movement make containment nearly impossible. The UN is scrambling for $1.1 billion more to fund the response—or risk running out of critical supplies. With no approved treatments or vaccines ready, communities face an escalating, terrifying crisis that could spiral out of control.
