Dozens at an Ebola treatment center in northeast Congo go on strike over unpaid salaries

Dozens of staff at an Ebola treatment center in northeast Congo's Ituri province went on strike over unpaid salaries and bonuses, shutting down Rwampara General Hospital and blocking access to the facility. The strike involves epidemiologists, case investigators, drivers, and gravediggers who claim Congolese authorities have not paid their wages since the May outbreak of the Bundibugyo virus, which has no approved vaccine or treatment.
