Ebola Crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo Situation Report, No. 6

Two confirmed deaths and a handful of suspected cases indicated a possible resurgence of Ebola virus disease in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. The 2018 Ebola outbreak in the region is the second deadliest on record in DRC, resulting in more than 2,200 deaths. 

The latest cases come just as the April 12 deadline arrived for marking the region as having eradicated the 2018 historic outbreak. The two deaths thus far — a man in his 20s and a young child — came from Beni, once the epicenter of the outbreak’s infection zone.
