Canadian aid workers in Congo join fight against Ebola virus

May 21, 2026
Trish Newport, an emergency manager with Doctors Without Borders, says her team in the Democratic Republic of Congo is dealing with a sprawling Ebola outbreak. So far, officials say a suspected 600 people are ill and 139 have died in Ituri province and neighbouring Uganda, but the numbers are likely higher because of a lag in test results. More Canadian aid workers are on their way to the region.
