The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Uganda was declared a public health emergency by the World Health Organisation.
Ebola is a highly contagious virus that can be contracted via bodily fluids such as vomit, blood, or semen.
The disease it causes is rare, but can be severe and often fatal. In a post on X, the World Health Organisation (WHO) said the outbreak does not meet the criteria of a pandemic emergency, like Covid-19, and advised against the closure of international borders.
