Ebola Outbreak Update: Democratic Republic of the Congo

There has been significant progress in containing the EVD outbreak in Democratic Republic of the Congo. However, the outbreak is not yet over. The Ministry of Health and other national authorities, WHO, partners, and the global community continue to closely monitor the EVD outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The focus of the response remains on intensive surveillance, including active case finding, investigation of suspected cases and alerts and contact tracing. The Ministry of Health, with support from WHO, is planning to review the ongoing response in early July in order to guide reprogramming of interventions, including developing a 90-day response plan after the outbreak.
