截至2026年9月下旬,剛果民主共和國(DRC)正面臨其史上最大規模的伊波拉相關流行病。
As of late September 2026, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is facing its largest Ebola-related epidemic on record.
該疫情由邦迪布焦病毒於2026年5月引發,已迅速蔓延,波及七個省份的63個衛生區。
Triggered in May 2026 by the Bundibugyo virus, the outbreak has rapidly expanded, affecting 63 health zones across seven provinces.
目前確診病例為7,890例,死亡人數達3,799人,情況十分危急,病例致死率為48.1%。
With 7,890 confirmed cases and 3,799 deaths, the situation is critical, showing a case fatality ratio of 48.1%.
人道主義處境同樣艱困;長期的衝突、動盪不安以及大規模流離失所,嚴重阻礙了醫療介入。
The humanitarian landscape is equally difficult; chronic conflict, insecurity, and mass displacement are severely hindering medical intervention.
這些因素導致衛生工作者難以進行監測、追蹤接觸者及執行疫苗接種計畫。

儘管國際傳播的風險仍然很低,全球衛生當局正密切監測該局勢。

這是自1976年以來,剛果民主共和國發生的第17次同類疫情,此次事件凸顯了在衝突地區改善醫療保健取得途徑及加強應對措施的迫切需求,以期最終控制該病毒。
The 17th outbreak of its kind in the DRC since 1976, this event highlights the urgent need for improved access to healthcare and stronger response efforts in conflict-affected regions to finally bring the virus under control.
