The Ebola outbreak in Africa could spread to the UK and other countries, Dr Jean Kaseya, director general of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, has warned, according to the Guardian.
The outbreak has reached 10,000 cases, with nearly 5,000 deaths. Kaseya described its spread as unprecedented and warned that more funding was needed to prevent wider transmission.
Kaseya drew a comparison with Covid, which initially took hold in China before spreading worldwide. His warning raised the prospect of Ebola reaching more countries, rather than confirming that it had reached the UK.
