While most of the world’s attention is on the emerging COVID-19, progress is being made in the fight against Africa’s current Ebola outbreak. Since August 2018, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has been in the midst of the second largest Ebola outbreak on record. It has killed more than 2,200 of the 3,400 that have been infected, putting the mortality rate at more than 50%.
Yet, thanks to a new vaccine, it look as though the fight against Ebola is making significant progress. “Preliminary study results of the new injectable Ebola vaccine, named Ervebo, have shown it is nearly 98% effective and can reduce the chances of dying for those who have already been infected, according to WHO.” This is a massive step forward in the fight against one of the deadliest viruses known to humanity. In an effort to get this life-saving vaccine distributed ASAP, clinical trials of the vaccine have been fast-tracked. While this inherently contains some risk, that risk is almost certainly worth it when considering the severity of Ebola infections.
Making matters worse, the current armed conflict in the DRC not only puts healthcare workers and civilians at risk of Ebola but at risk of being caught up in armed conflict as well. Also concerning for public health officials is the degree to which displacement caused by the armed conflict is exacerbating the spread of Ebola. An almost unimaginably difficult situation by any measure, but progress is being made.

Happiness is all i see now I never thought that I will be cured from HERPES virus again. I have been suffering from a deadly disease (HERPES) for the past 3 years now, I had spent a lot of money going from one places to another, from churches to churches, hospitals have been my home every day residence. Constant checks up have been my hobby not until this faithful day, I was searching through the internet, I saw a testimony on how DR agaba helped someone in curing his HERPES disease, quickly I copied his email which is Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com just to give him a test I spoke to him, he asked me to do some certain things which I did, he told me that he is going to provide the herbal cure to me, which he did, then he asked me to go for medical checkup after some days after using the herbal cure, behold I was free from the deadly disease, he only asked me to post the testimony through the whole world, faithfully am doing it now, please brothers and sisters, he is great, I owe him in return. if you are having a similar problem just email him on : Dragabasolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatApp: +2349074536486
