Original: Ebola outbreak deepens as Congo fails to trace most contacts | Daily Sabah

The failure to track people exposed to the virus raises the risk of further spread and complicates containment efforts, deepening concerns that the outbreak is growing beyond the capacity of current response measures.

Why now: Contact tracing failures in an active Ebola outbreak signal a serious risk of the epidemic spreading further.
