MSF staff member tests positive for Ebola in Congo

Original: MSF staff member tests positive for Ebola in Congo, aid organisation says

Doctors Without Borders (MSF) says one of its staff members has tested positive for Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The case marks a rare infection among frontline aid workers responding to the outbreak, where health teams face difficult conditions and high exposure risks. Attention is turning to how the organisation protects its personnel and whether further cases emerge among medical staff or the surrounding community.

Why now: A confirmed Ebola case involving a well-known aid organisation's own worker raises fresh alarm about outbreak containment efforts.
