At least 100 deaths reported in Ebola outbreak in DR Congo as six Americans exposed

The WHO declared the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda a public health emergency of international concern, warning the epidemic may be larger than official figures suggest. As of May 17, 10 confirmed and 336 suspected cases, including 88 deaths, had been reported in the DRC.

As of May 17, 10 confirmed and 336 suspected cases, including 88 deaths, had been reported in the DRC.

The outbreak is caused by the Bundibugyo strain of Ebola, for which no approved vaccine or treatment exists. The strain carries a fatality rate of 25 to 50%, and most DRC cases have affected people aged 20 to 39, with over two-thirds being women.

The CDC and DHS invoked Title 42 on May 18, 2026, restricting entry into the United States for non-U.S. passport holders who had traveled to the DRC, Uganda or South Sudan in the prior three weeks. Title 42 has been used only twice in the modern era, first during COVID-19 from 2020 to 2023.

At least six Americans were reported to have been exposed to the Bundibugyo virus in the DRC, with three facing high-risk exposure and one symptomatic, according to sources with international aid organizations. The CDC said it was coordinating the withdrawal of a small number of directly affected Americans.

The U.S. State Department raised its travel advisory for the DRC to Level 4, warning Americans not to travel there. The advisory cited the Ebola outbreak, inadequate local health infrastructure and risks of violent crime, noting the U.S. government cannot provide emergency services in Ituri Province.

The WHO warned that conflict and population displacement in the DRC's Ituri Province complicate containment efforts. A team of 35 experts and roughly seven metric tons of emergency medical supplies arrived in Bunia, the provincial capital, on May 17 to support the frontline response.
