## Resource

A U.S. citizen diagnosed with Ebola in Congo adds urgency to an already explosive outbreak—the fastest-growing on the continent, with over 1,800 cases and 600+ deaths, now spreading to Uganda. With no vaccine or treatment for the Bundibugyo strain, efforts are crippled by funding gaps, attacks on clinics, and regional conflict. But hope arrives as clinical trials for new treatments just kicked off—science racing to turn the tide. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
