The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo is spreading faster than efforts to fight it, the head of the World Health Organization has warned, with nearly 4,000 confirmed cases so far. With five provinces known to be affected, authorities in Kinshasa are concerned about the deadly virus reaching the capital.
The outbreak is concentrated in eastern DRC, the opposite side of the country from Kinshasa and its population of more than 17 million.
