The World Health Organization chief has warned that the fast-moving Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda is outpacing response efforts, with suspected deaths rising to 220. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said delays in detecting cases mean responders are now 'playing catch-up,' adding that the outbreak is likely to worsen before it improves. He said he will travel to Congo on May 26 (Tuesday) with another senior WHO official responsible for addressing health emergencies. Countries bordering Congo, he added, are at high risk and must take immediate action. #congo #WHO #news #health #ebola
