Four nurses who contract Ebola in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo are discharged from hospital after recovering, according to UN News and the World Health Organization. The nurses had been treated in Bunia, where health authorities report that they complete recovery and are no longer receiving inpatient care. The case is linked to Ebola caused by the Bundibugyo strain, which prompted an international health alert. Sources say additional recoveries are expected as more patients receive timely diagnoses and can access treatment. Both reports also point to the role of the broader outbreak response in improving outcomes, suggesting that expanding care and strengthening the response contribute to better survival prospects. While the reports focus on the confirmed discharges and anticipated further recoveries, they do not provide additional details such as the total number of cases or whether other patients are recovering at the same time. The accounts present the nurses’ discharge as a positive development within the ongoing efforts to control the outbreak in eastern DRC.
