WHO chief lands in eastern Congo’s Ituri province, epicenter of Ebola, as outbreak outpaces response

The WHO chief visited eastern Congo's Ituri province, the epicenter of a fast-spreading Ebola outbreak with 906 suspected cases and 223 deaths. The Bundibugyo strain has no approved treatment or vaccine, and response efforts lag despite increased aid from the EU and U.S. Challenges include attacks on health centers and clashes with local burial practices.
