An ebola outbreak in the Congo has killed at least five people says the WHO.

A few months ago people started becoming ill. Emergency response teams were sent out to contain the outbreak.

Ebola is untreatable and is almost always fatal.

Either way this is not good. I thought this was gone.

New York times has up an article about this also. A lot of the same info is reflected in all of them.

Pretty scary stuff. I guess the good thing about this disease is that it's so virulent, there's little risk of it spreading since people die too quickly.
