Ebola death toll rises to 930, as outbreak spreads at record pace

International Organisation for Migration (IOM) flagged the worrying development as they believe the burial of Ebola victims' bodies has contributed to the spike in cases and the fast spread.

Thirty-seven new deaths were recorded in the previous 24 hours in one of the highest single-day totals.

The growing Ebola outbreak in the DRC is raising concerns about cross-border spread.

The death toll from the latest Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has risen to at least 930 and the virus appears to be spreading faster.
