Trump Administration Tries to Shift Blame for Ebola Response

The Trump administration is criticized for blaming the World Health Organization for its inadequate response to an Ebola outbreak in Central Africa, particularly in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. Experts argue that U.S. policies, including cuts to global health funding and withdrawal from WHO, have weakened the response to the Bundibugyo strain of Ebola. WHO officials and health experts highlight delays in international action and the challenges of combating the outbreak in a conflict-affected region.
