The road into Bundibugyo winds through steep green mountains along Ugandaโs border with the Congo, where villages cling to hillsides and people have long moved easily between the two countries on foot.
One of the most complex Ebola outbreaks in years is unfolding across areas impacted by armed conflict, mass displacement and weak health infrastructure.
The organization's director general said there were 263 confirmed cases in both countries as of Saturday, with 43 confirmed deaths.
The number of confirmed cases in the country has climbed to 260 as global health organizations warn of the risk of further spread.
Tedros said the rare Bundibugyo strain has no approved โ vaccines or treatments, making early palliative care โ including isolation, rehydration and pain management โ critical.
Caused by a strain of the virus for which there is no vaccine or treatment, the latest outbreak has already caused a suspected 220 deaths and 900 cases.
The outbreak is straining health systems in eastern Congo, where violence, displacement and distrust of authorities have hit efforts to contain the Bundibugyo strain's spread.
The entrance ban of residents from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda and South Sudan comes as the WHO raised the risk of โthe Bundibugyo strain to "very โ high."
The public health agency, which underwent mass firings last year, wants to expand its screening capabilities amid a deadly outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda.
At least three such incidents have occurred in the northeastern province of Ituri where the first Ebola cases were reported.
Many in the outbreak's epicenter are split between criticism of the government's response and denial of the disease's very existence.
The outbreak is caused by the rare Bundibugyo strain of the virus and has no approved vaccine or antibody treatment.
There are no vaccines or known drugs specifically approved to treat the rare Bundibugyo strain of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The outbreak's epicenter is in a border province where the violence wrought by various armed groups has led to intense episodes of internal displacement.
