The Ebola outbreak in the DRC has renewed scrutiny on bats, but Dr. Paul Webala caution that direct transmission links remain unproven. Damaging bat colonies disrupts vital ecosystems and ignores the fact that culling fails to stop zoonotic disease pathways.

Quite the interview with the WHO director-general re: Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: “He recalled a discussion he had with some community leaders who pressed him on why the world only cares about their region when there is an Ebola outbreak underway. With long-standing conflict, hundreds of thousands of displaced people, widespread hunger, and a multitude of diseases that kill more frequently than Ebola does, the conclusion some have reached is that the rest of the world only cares because it’s afraid Ebola will spread beyond the DRC’s borders.” And you know, in too many cases, they are probably right. https://www.statnews.com/2026/06/13/who-director-general-in-drc-war-greater-concern-than-ebola/ Reporting by @HelenBranswell@scicomm.xyz; h/t @czarbucks@vmst.io #ebola

WHO has declared the #Ebola outbreak in DRC and Uganda a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). First time this has been done without consulting an emergency committee. Extraordinary move that speaks to how concerning the facts on the ground look right now. https://www.who.int/news/item/17-05-2026-epidemic-of-ebola-disease-in-the-democratic-republic-of-the-congo-and-uganda-determined-a-public-health-emergency-of-international-concern
