According to the Democratic Republic of the Congo's (DRC) health ministry, nearly 1,000 people have died from the Ebola virus in the country, with 999 confirmed deaths attributed to the Bundibugyo strain since the outbreak began in May. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports two additional deaths in neighboring Uganda. As of Monday, the DRC has recorded 2,473 cases, with 737 patients currently isolated in hospitals. This outbreak has claimed lives at a faster rate than any previous Ebola epidemic, surpassing the 2013–2016 outbreak, which was the deadliest on record with over 11,000 fatalities. The WHO has noted that the outbreak has expanded more rapidly than any prior one, and officials warn that if action is not taken immediately, it could become the worst outbreak in history. There are currently no approved vaccines or treatments for the Bundibugyo strain. Additionally, the head of Africa's Centres for Disease Control and Prevention called for urgent global support and requested the removal of travel restrictions on Uganda, which has not reported new cases in over a month.
