Ebola in DRC: Deadliest outbreak on record ‘outpacing the response’
France 241 min read81 words
WHO Spokesperson Tarik Jašarević has warned that the full extent of Ebola virus circulation remains unknown, with undetected transmission chains and delayed care significantly hindering containment efforts. In a discussion with Eve Irvine, Jašarević highlighted that many infected individuals are not accessing treatment centers, while patients presenting late face much poorer survival odds. The spokesperson stressed that the inability to locate all active cases creates a critical vulnerability, as hidden transmission continues to drive the outbreak despite ongoing response measures.
