DRC's fast-growing Ebola outbreak spreads to sixth province
The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has expanded to a sixth province, Bas-Uele, after a man who traveled from Haut-Uele died in the provincial capital of Buta. The WHO has warned that the outbreak is on track to become the deadliest in history, potentially surpassing the 2014-2016 West African epidemic that killed over 11,000 people. The rapid geographic spread of the virus across multiple provinces signals an escalating public health crisis.
