The last Ebola patient in the Democratic Republic of the Congo was discharged from a Kasai treatment centre, the WHO said, marking the 19th recovery among 64 cases since September 4. No new infections have been reported since September 25. WHO Africa director Mohamed Janabi called the milestone a remarkable achievement as health workers cheered in Bulape. The country’s 16th outbreak has caused 45 deaths; WHO teams set up a 32‑bed centre and vaccinated more than 35,000 people in the remote region. If no cases emerge in 42 days, the outbreak will be declared over.
