Arson attacks on Ebola treatment centers in eastern Congo show how authorities are faced with a number of serious complications - including a backlash in local communities - as they try to stop an outbreak of an infectious disease that has been declared a global health emergency.
The burning of the centers in two towns at the heart of the outbreak shows the anger in a region beset by violence linked to armed rebel groups, the displacement of a large number of people, the failure of local government and international aid cuts that experts say have stripped health facilities in vulnerable communities.
