In the Democratic Republic of Congo, at least 166 people have died in an outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus.

World Health Organization spokesperson Gregory Hartl: “At WHO we have received reports of 372 cases of illness and 166 deaths coming from Western Kasai province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Now, five of these cases have been confirmed as Ebola, and obviously then this is extremely important that it’s Ebola, but there’s also other things which we think are going on there.”

Ebola has no known cure. The death rate can be as high as 90 percent.
