The World Health Organization reports that Ebola cases in the Democratic Republic of the Congo have reached 64, and 42 people have died since the outbreak began. Seven new infections emerged in Bulape Health Zone within Kasai Province, but WHO officials note that fatality rates are decreasing due to improved detection methods and enhanced patient care.

Women represent 58 percent of all infections, and children younger than 10 account for one-quarter of cases. Five health workers have contracted the virus, and three have died. Health authorities are monitoring 1,787 contacts, and 13 patients remain under treatment, with nine having recovered.

The current outbreak is showing signs of stabilization, with only two pediatric cases reported in the past two weeks. Transmission patterns have shifted from widespread community spread to smaller family clusters that require rapid identification and isolation to prevent further infections.
