01 · THE DISPATCH

The World Health Organization's Director-General warned Wednesday that the Ebola outbreak is spreading faster than containment efforts, according to a statement cited by N12. The warning comes amid the long-running outbreak, which has been the subject of ongoing global health preparedness efforts. As The Zioneer previously reported, the Red Cross warned earlier this month that the outbreak's peak was still ahead, and Israel's Health Ministry has been expanding its Ebola readiness protocols. No new case counts or locations were provided in the statement.
