The World Health Organization considers it too early to talk about the peak of the Ebola epidemic in the Congo

The Ebola epidemic in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has not yet passed its peak, according to the World Health Organization. "Based on past experience, we know that the epidemic may show signs of improvement initially, but then quite quickly the situation can deteriorate again," Olivier Le Paulin, head of the WHO's epidemiology department, told reporters. "We must not let our guard down, but we must redouble our efforts to advance," EFE quoted him as saying on Tuesday.
