PBS NewsHour reports 5,208 confirmed cases and 2,476 deaths from the Bundibugyo strain across six eastern Congo provinces, with the outbreak spreading approximately three times faster than the 2014-2016 West Africa epidemic.

An unverified EL PAÍS English report attributes an out-of-control assessment to the WHO.
