Which vaccines will curb the Ebola outbreak? WHO debates
The WHO is currently debating which vaccines and therapeutics should be tested to combat the ongoing Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. There are no approved vaccines for this specific strain, prompting experts to suggest clinical trials for potential treatments. The U.S. has decided not to bring Ebola patients back for treatment, opting instead to evacuate them to Europe, which has raised concerns among health experts.

- ▪There are currently no approved vaccines or therapeutics for the Bundibugyo species of Ebola.
- ▪The U.S. will not treat Ebola patients domestically, opting for evacuation to Europe instead.
