Due to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Médecins Sans Frontières has urgently requested expanded access to the Ervebo vaccine for at-risk groups. This outbreak is the 17th in the country’s history and is the most severe recorded, with over 5,300 deaths among more than 10,900 confirmed cases. Currently, there is no specific vaccine for the Bundibugyo strain causing this outbreak. MSF emphasizes the need to lift restrictions on Ervebo's use to protect health workers and affected communities. The World Health Organization has initiated a clinical study to assess Ervebo's cross-protection against Bundibugyo. MSF also highlights the necessity for sufficient vaccine stock, as only a fraction of requested doses have been allocated.
