UN says DRC Ebola outbreak growing exponentially
Original: DRC Ebola outbreak 'growing exponentially,' UN says
The United Nations has warned that the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo is spreading at an exponential rate. Health authorities and aid organisations are alarmed by the accelerating case numbers, which complicate containment efforts in a region already affected by conflict and weak infrastructure. The warning puts renewed attention on the international response and funding needs to bring the epidemic under control.
Why now: The UN's stark warning about exponential growth signals a potentially worsening health emergency in the DRC.
