What’s the latest on the recent Ebola outbreak?

A fast-growing Ebola outbreak linked mainly to the Bundibugyo strain is spreading across borders, with 900+ suspected cases and hundreds of deaths reported.

The WHO has declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, while UNICEF has activated its highest emergency response level and provided funding.

The CDC says there are no suspected or confirmed U.S. cases as of May 18, but it is monitoring travel risk and advising precautions.

Rapid surveillance, travel caution, and medical response remain critical as the outbreak continues to expand in Africa.
