SHKINASA (AP):
Congo will open three Ebola treatment centres in the eastern Ituri province, and the World Health Organization is sending a team of experts to the country, following an outbreak of a rare type of the virus that has killed nearly 120 people.
An American doctor in Congo is among the newly confirmed cases of the virus with no approved vaccines or medicines, Congolese officials said yesterday, as details emerged about the government’s delayed response to the outbreak.
