刚果东部埃博拉疫情形势严峻。确诊病例已达2,973例，其中死亡1,309例，疫情增长速度创历史新高[1]。超过100名医护人员已被感染[1]，目前仍有766名患者在院接受治疗[1]。
医护人员因工资问题引发的罢工进一步加剧了疫情防控困难。位于布尼亚市的埃利基亚埃博拉治疗中心医护人员周六开始罢工，原因是两个月未获得绩效奖金[1]。这次罢工导致患者护理工作中断，也是该地区一周内第二起医护人员罢工事件——上周布尼亚综合医院的工作人员也因未支付薪资而罢工[1]。医护人员表示将继续罢工直到"找到具体解决方案"[1]。伊图里省作为疫情最严重的地区，确诊病例占全国近90%[1]。疫情自5月15日开始以来[1]，已有540人康复[1]。
The Ebola outbreak in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo continues to accelerate, with confirmed cases reaching 2,973 and deaths totaling 1,309[1]. Healthcare workers at the Elikya Ebola Treatment Center in Bunia have launched a strike beginning Saturday due to two months of unpaid performance bonuses, disrupting patient care[1].
This labor action represents the second week of healthcare worker strikes in the region[1]. More than 100 health workers have been infected during the outbreak[1], while 766 patients remain hospitalized and 540 have recovered[1]. The Ituri Province accounts for nearly 90 percent of confirmed cases since the outbreak began on May 15[1]. Healthcare workers at Bunia General Hospital staged a separate strike last week due to unpaid salaries[1], highlighting broader compensation concerns among staff responding to the epidemic.
