Suspected Ebola cases triple in a week as WHO warns of rapid spread in DRC

The World Health Organization has raised the risk assessment for the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo to 'very high' as suspected cases tripled to nearly 750 in a week. The response is being hindered by community distrust, attacks on treatment centers, and resource shortages, particularly for the Bundibugyo strain which lacks approved vaccines.
