DR Congo's Ebola outbreak is expanding exponentially with 5,290 cases and a 47.6% fatality rate. Healthcare workers face extreme infection and attack risks while funding runs out, exposing critical gaps in health system capacity, surveillance, and emergency response.
The WHO director-general warns that Ebola cases in DRC are doubling weekly in hotspots, reaching 3,874 confirmed cases and 1,751 deaths. The US has committed over $500 million to the response, but health system and security gaps remain critical. Urgent investments in surveillance, health worker support, and community access are needed.
