Fastest Ebola outbreak spreads in Congo

The eastern Congo region is experiencing the fastest Ebola outbreak in history, spreading to two new areas and bringing the total affected regions to 60, with 5,794 cases and 2,786 deaths. Difficult conditions, including insecurity and displacement, have caused the epidemic to spread at an unprecedented pace, overwhelming control efforts, with mortality rates in some areas exceeding the overall average of 48%. Vaccines such as "Ervebo" are currently being used for healthcare workers, while clinical trials for a vaccine targeting the rare Bundibugyo virus are still underway. The outbreak is believed to have begun in February but was officially announced in May.
