HealthWHO warns DR Congo Ebola outbreak may be double the official tally

The World Health Organization warns that the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo may be far larger than official figures indicate. The UN health agency says cases are being underreported, with the true tally potentially reaching twice the reported number. Doctors at the outbreak’s epicentre are also threatening to strike. The warning highlights mounting pressure on the response as reporting gaps and medical staff tensions persist.
