刚果民主共和国的埃博拉疫情持续恶化。截至9月1日,该国确诊病例已超过6000例,死亡人数达2911人1。联合国秘书长古特雷斯称这是"历史上增长最快的埃博拉疫情"1。疫情由布迪布焦病毒株引起,已蔓延至6个省的约60个卫生区,其中超过1360人已康复1。
为应对疫情,当局已启动疫苗接种运动,超过5万剂疫苗已送达1。卫生部长塞缪尔·罗杰·坎巴在8月28日表示,"我们有足够的剂量为所有医疗工作者接种"1。然而,东部地区的冲突和不安全局势严重阻碍了疫情防控工作的推进,使得病例增长速度超过了控制努力1。
The Democratic Republic of Congo is grappling with a severe Ebola epidemic that has now surpassed 6,000 confirmed cases, with 2,911 deaths recorded 1. The outbreak, caused by the Bundibugyo virus strain, has spread across approximately 60 health zones in six provinces, expanding at a pace that outstrips containment efforts 1. More than 1,360 patients have recovered from the disease 1.
The epidemic has prompted an urgent vaccination campaign, with over 50,000 vaccine doses deployed to affected areas 1. Health Minister Samuel Roger Kamba stated on August 28 that authorities possessed "sufficient doses to vaccinate all healthcare workers" 1. However, the response remains severely hampered by ongoing conflict and insecurity in the eastern regions where the outbreak is most concentrated 1. UN Secretary-General António Guterres characterized the situation as "the fastest-growing Ebola epidemic in history" 1.
