The World Health Organization alerted today that there are unknown transmission chains of the Ebola virus in the Democratic Republic of Congo. WHO expressed concern about this situation, considering it represents a significant challenge for controlling the outbreak.
The organization showed particular concern about the fact that the majority of deaths caused by the disease are being recorded in communities. This suggests that many people are dying without having passed through health systems or without having been officially diagnosed.
The article does not provide further details about the number of cases or deaths, nor about the measures WHO intends to implement to address this situation. The information focuses essentially on the alert issued by the health organization.
