Doctors Without Borders (MSF) warned that the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo remained uncontrolled six months after its declaration.

According to figures attributed to Reuters, more than 11,000 confirmed infections had been recorded.

MSF expressed concern about undetected cases and continuing transmission within some hospitals despite significant resources devoted to the response.

The outbreak was reportedly linked to the rare Bundibugyo strain, for which no specifically approved vaccine or treatment is available.
