HealthWHO says Congo’s real Ebola cases may be four times the official tally
The World Health Organization says the actual number of Ebola cases in Congo may be four times higher than the official count. Chikwe Ihekweazu, executive director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program, said many patients die at home. Those patients never reach a medical facility, meaning their illnesses are not captured in formal reporting. The warning suggests the published tally may substantially understate the outbreak’s true scale.
