Ebola Caseload in DR Congo Surpasses 4,000

The total number of confirmed Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo has exceeded 4,000, with over 1,800 deaths reported since the outbreak began.

Health workers are currently protesting against unpaid wages and dangerous working conditions, which has significantly disrupted containment efforts in affected displacement camps.

The Africa CDC and WHO have issued a joint call for community-led action to address the crisis and prevent the virus from spreading to neighboring countries.
