WHO Secures 70,000 Ebola Vaccine Doses for Congo Amid Record Outbreak

The World Health Organization announced that Congo will receive 70,000 doses of the Ervebo Ebola vaccine, with 20,000 earmarked for a Phase 3 trial and the rest allocated to frontline health workers as the country battles the fastest-growing Ebola outbreak on record. The outbreak, which began in eastern Congo months before its May declaration, has killed more than 2,300 people and confirmed nearly 5,000 cases, surpassing previous fatality records. WHO officials warned the epidemic could exceed the 2014-2016 West African outbreak, while health workers have faced security and logistical challenges.
