Webinar: CDC Update: Ebola Outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo

July 22, 2019

Please join CUGH for a special webinar to discuss the ongoing Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).

This outbreak is the largest to occur in DRC and is now the second largest Ebola outbreak in the history of the disease. Only the 2014–2016 outbreak in West Africa was larger. The outbreak is occurring in a highly insecure environment, which complicates public health response activities and increases the risk of disease spread.

This webinar will outline Ebola Virus Disease, the current situation on the ground, and US government and international response efforts – including key public health approaches to disease control.
