** 31-Mar-2019 World View: Ebola cases continue to sure in DRC
There were 15 new confirmed cases of Ebola in eastern Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC) on Friday, following 14 new confirmed cases
on Thursday. The number of new cases is surging, two weeks after
health officials said that the outbreak was largely contained. At the
same time, five Ebola medical centers have been attacked since last
month, sometimes by armed assailants, forcing health workers to
suspend activities.
The new cases are all still in DRC. There have been no cases reported
across the porous borders into Uganda, Rwanda or South Sudan.
