WHO Rapid Risk Assessment on #Ebola caused by Bundibugyo virus in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda:   The risk assessment has been revised: 🔴 Very high at the national level in #DRC 🟠 High for #Uganda 🟠 High for countries sharing land borders with DRC and Uganda 🔵 Low for the rest of the Africa region and at the global level   The risk in DRC remains very high, because: ⚠️ The outbreak has continued to expand rapidly in terms of numbers of cases and geographical spread with more areas affected ⚠️ Epidemiological links and the full chain of transmission are not yet clearly established, and the source of the outbreak remains under investigation ⚠️ Ongoing conflict restricts movement of frontline responders and surveillance teams ⚠️ Community fear and misinformation hinder case detection, contact tracing, and isolation, and potentially facilitate disease spread ⚠️ Limited healthcare infrastructure and delays in laboratory confirmation, although these are being scaled up by DRC, with support of partners   WHO continues to support DRC to put an end to this outbreak bit.ly/3Sgobhn
