Health workers battle with few resources on DR Congo's Ebola front line • FRANCE 24 English

Squeezed onto the back of a motorcycle, clearly exhausted, a young woman arrived at Rwampara hospital, where overwhelmed health workers have found themselves on the front line of a deadly Ebola outbreak. The town in the violence-hit east of the Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the centres of a recent flare-up in cases of the highly contagious disease. Since the current outbreak was declared on May 15, more than 220 suspected deaths and 900 suspected cases have been identified, according to official figures, in what the World Health Organization has declared an international emergency.
