The deadliest Ebola outbreak in the DRC, between 2018 and 2020, killed nearly 2,300 people. At this time, 64 people have had #Ebola in the #DRC, of which 42 have died. The WHO estimated the mortality rate for the latest outbreak at 45.7 percent compared with between 25 and 90 for previous outbreaks.
