The number of Ebola deaths in the Democratic Republic of Congo has surpassed 3,000, according to government data. ⁣ ⁣ The outbreak has become the largest and deadliest epidemic in Congo's history, surpassing the 2018-2020 Ebola epidemic.⁣ ⁣ WHO estimates that 60% of deaths happen outside of treatment centres and detecting cases before patients succumb to the disease can be challenging, meaning the actual death toll is likely to be higher than official figures.⁣ ⁣ #ebola #epidemic #drcongo
