More on the accelerating Ebola crisis in the DRC.
Without wishing to be alarmist (but accepting that it will sound that way) this is starting to remind me of the reports that were coming out of Wuhan in the January & February before we knew to call the health crisis about to engulf the world 'Covid'.
There's many way this may not come to pass, not least of all due to the lessons learnt during the pandemic six years ago, but nonetheless, I'm getting worried.
