Ebola Treatment Center Burned Down in Congo Amid Deadly Outbreak
Original: An Ebola treatment center was burned down in Congo amid more than 4,000 deaths during the outbreak
An Ebola treatment center in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been burned down in an attack, compounding efforts to contain one of the country's worst ever outbreaks, which has now claimed more than 4,000 lives. Health workers say the destruction of treatment facilities hampers containment efforts and endangers staff. The attack reflects ongoing distrust of medical teams and violence in the affected eastern regions, where response operations have repeatedly been disrupted.
Why now: The destruction of health infrastructure during an ongoing deadly epidemic raises alarm about the outbreak's containment.
