DRC: North Kivu Confronted with a New Ebola Surge

While the Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo showed signs of improvement, North Kivu experienced a 73% increase in cases, unlike Ituri where cases decreased by 26%. The Mabalako general hospital, the only treatment center in the area, is overwhelmed, prompting the WHO to bolster intervention efforts. Cases are widespread in both Beni and rural villages, complicating containment efforts.
