Summary

A small outbreak in Mbandaka, Équateur Province, infected 5 people, all of whom died (CFR 100%). Genomic analysis suggested another survivor-mediated emergence rather than a fresh spillover.

Why this matters

Third Équateur Ebola outbreak in five years; reinforced the dual challenge of zoonotic and survivor-mediated emergence.
