Ebola outbreak spreading in Africa is 'likely far worse' than official figures suggest: IRC - ABC News - Breaking News, Latest News and Videos
Overview
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) warns the Ebola outbreak in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda is likely far larger than official figures indicate, suggesting substantial undercounting. That assessment aligns with WHO concerns and frontline clinician reports of rapid spread, attacks on health teams, staff illnesses and shortages that are hindering the response. Humanitarian actors say conflict, funding cuts and access problems could let the crisis worsen without an urgent international scale-up of resources and security for responders.
