Congo-Kinshasa: 'We're Sitting On a Volcano' Warns EU Commissioner After Visit to Ebola-Hit DR Congo

EU Commissioner Hadja Lahbib visited Bunia, the epicenter of the Ebola outbreak in DR Congo. The EU pledged €170 million for health and humanitarian response. As of 9 June, 598 cases and 115 deaths have been confirmed by the health ministry. The rare Bundibugyo strain, with no approved vaccine, complicates containment.
