Ebola May Be Spreading Faster Than First Thought, WHO Doctor Warns The Democratic Republic of Congo's latest Ebola outbreak has been making headlines for weeks, but a recent warning from the World Health Organization suggests that the true extent of the crisis may be far more dire than initially thought.
Dr. Anne Ancia, a WHO representative on the ground, told the BBC that cases have spread beyond the epicenter in Ituri province to other areas.
The numbers are alarming: over 513 suspected cases and at least 131 deaths in DR Congo, with one person having died in neighboring Uganda.
