“The final extraordinary aspect of the outbreak is that it is caused by the uncommon Bundibugyo strain of Ebola virus, which has no clinically validated treatments or vaccines. This is only the third Ebola outbreak caused by Bundibugyo, which has had fatality rates of 25–50 percent.”
That is not a good sign…I hope the virus is contained and (sadly) ‘burns out’ quickly.
This is just every year, then. Great.
A 50% mortality ratio, and a US Sec of Health who swims in raw sewage and eats decomposing animal carcasses. Sounds like a helluva plot for a movie.
Smartest this this administration has done, keep the infected there.
Remember when life was normal? Everyone remembers.
Waiting for the covhantabola any day now.
Doom gloom clicks
Great, two pandemics for the price of one. Double the fun.
Madagascar, you know what to do.
fuck, pls dont turn into another pandemic this would be far worse
Viruses feeling pretty good about this Regime
Good thing the CDC is being run by the Outbreak monkey these days
who had Ebola outbreak on their 2026 bingo card?
Any Americans in America? That’s not clear.
What place on the web is better for world wide disease outbreaks? I only use Reddit as my outside connection to the web. Well, other than the Google research I need to do.
Who did declares emergency?
I think the US should be a member of the WHO.
Well atleast ppl are gonna boycott football world cup so we all good?
Cool. So, we’ve got Ebola and hantavirus. What’s next, chikungunya? Dengue?
„The [U.S. Agency for International Development](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/us/politics/usaid-former-employees.html) has played a major role in containing previous outbreaks, but last year it was shuttered by the Trump administration. It is unclear how that might have affected the response to this outbreak. The administration also cut funding for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the leading public health agency in the country. It also [withdrew](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/us/politics/united-states-withdraws-world-health-organization.html) in January from the W.H.O.“ From [NYTimes](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/17/world/africa/ebola-congo-uganda-who-public-health-emergency.html) . The gift that keeps on giving.
I thought USA left WHO? If we don’t acknowledge it…it doesn’t exist right?
Guys my 8 yr old daughter was 3 during covid and i woke up 5 days ago with a rundown what hantavirus was and im guessing tomorrow its ebola. This world is turning my daughter into a virologist. Her favorite game is plague inc.
Sure glad trump is got this under control 🤣🤣🤣 damn clown paid u off half the cdc scientists flippin moron
I’m supposed to go to a Congo World Cup match next month. Not sure how concerned I need to be about it. It may even get canceled with travel restrictions going into place.
I bet RFK Jr would eat Ebola if he could
Ok just waiting for Kony to make a return
Ebola’s fucking awful. I hope this is taken seriously.
Quick dismantle the CDD and illegally fire everyone then declare that everything is ok!
Cannot fucking believe that after how the trump administration has been treating Germany and most recently threatening to withdraw US troops that we said „yeah sure, please send your Ebola infected citizens HERE“. FML
If we could have just one plague at a time, that would be great please
Better restrict travel because the CDC couldn’t handle an actual real Ebola epidemic. What do you expect when you defund the CDC. Typical BS failed policies.
Yeah ebola isn’t the pandemic I want tbh
We have the beet admin in charge right now in the US. Don’t worry guys, you won’t have to wear masks or wash your hands or deal with any lock downs. Just get used to friends and family dying…maybe
