WHO to decide on Ebola
UN health agency experts was to meet yesterday to decide whether the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo should still be considered a global health emergency, following a sharp decline in reported cases. The outbreak was first identified in August 2018 and has since killed more than 2,300 people in eastern DR Congo. WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Tuesday said he was "encouraged" by an improvement in the situation, with only three cases reported in the past week.
