Relief arrives as Congo confirms no Ebola cases on a quarantined riverboat near Kinshasa, dispelling fears of a major outbreak in the capital. After screening over 200 passengers and testing samples, authorities found no trace of the Bundibugyo virus — a crucial win amid a historically fast-spreading epidemic that’s already claimed over 1,900 lives. The scare began when a passenger who disembarked weeks prior died with Ebola-like symptoms, triggering a swift quarantine and decontamination. While the current outbreak remains the second-largest on record and continues to surge unpredictably, officials urge calm as health teams scramble to contain it — even as global aid groups warn response efforts are still too slow to stop the deadly chain of transmission.
