Ebola's Unrelenting March Across the DRC The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has long been plagued by health crises, including outbreaks of cholera and devastating cases of malaria.
However, the latest development – the spread of the Ebola virus to six provinces – serves as a stark reminder that even with modern medicine, some diseases remain elusive and deadly.
Since August 2018, more than 3,300 people have been infected with Ebola in the DRC, resulting in over 2,200 deaths.
