Ebola Emergency in Ituri: Africa CDC has confirmed a new Ebola outbreak in eastern DR Congo’s Ituri province, reporting 246 suspected cases and 65 deaths so far, mainly in Mongwalu and Rwampara, with additional suspected cases in Bunia. Cross-Border Alarm: The agency says it’s convening an urgent meeting with DRC, Uganda, South Sudan and partners to boost surveillance, preparedness, and response, warning that mining-linked movement and insecurity could drive spread. Strain Complication: Early lab results suggest a non-Zaire strain, with sequencing ongoing—raising concerns that past tools may not fit as neatly. Humanitarian Pressure: At the same time, aid groups warn hunger is worsening across the DRC, with needs far outpacing response, adding strain to already fragile health systems.
