As Ebola spreads exponentially in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the death toll has exceeded 2,500. The Africa CDC has raised concerns that the actual number of infections could be three times higher than official figures. The Congolese government has begun administering the Ervebo vaccine and has requested additional vaccine supplies from international organizations such as the WHO. The UN has warned that the rate of Ebola spread is outpacing response efforts and emphasized the importance of deploying personnel and resources.
