Pestilence

Another Ebola outbreak hits DRC days after previous outbreak declared over - UPI.com
UPI reports: "A new Ebola outbreak was reported Wednesday in the Democratic Republic of Congo, days after a previous outbreak there was declared to be over. Four cases of the disease were positively confirmed in the country's North Kivu province and more are anticipated, Dr. Oly Ilunga Kalenga, the country's health minister, said. The health ministry is investigating reports of viral hemorrhagic fever. Since last weekend, 20 have died and 26 more have symptoms suggesting any of several viral infections, including Ebola."

Comment: Hopefully they will get the vaccines there as quickly as possible and contain the outbreak.
