Summary
One month after the WHO declared Congo's Ebola outbreak a public health emergency, the virus remains far from contained and cases are still climbing sharply.
Congo's worsening outbreak has faded from global attention even as the latest warning argues the crisis is intensifying rather than stabilizing.
U.S. leadership is described as critical to sustaining the response, with the report warning that a prolonged failure to contain the virus could eventually threaten Americans.
