Congo's Ebola outbreak has topped 11,000 cases, highlighting the severity of the situation. The health ministry reported on Wednesday 11,042 infections and 5,387 deaths, making it Congo's deadliest outbreak. The crisis began in mid-May, and authorities have struggled to contain it due to armed conflicts, a health system crisis, poor roads, and violence fueled by mistrust. The Bundibugyo virus responsible for this outbreak has no known vaccine or treatment and has spread to eight provinces. Health workers face attacks, and experts urge more efforts to contain the disease, which has spread to Uganda, Kenya, and Nigeria.
