1/n many thanks @OmarJimenez for hosting me @CNN this Sunday PM regarding a very concerning Ebola epidemic in Eastern DRC and @WHO public health emergency of international concern PHEIC. Unlike hantavirus I’m quite worried about this one…

[Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) @PeterHotez]

2/n first of all it’s much larger and spread out over a vast area with little public health infrastructure, it doesn’t help that there are fewer resources to fight this epidemic with the pullout of USAID, also there is huge population mobility to spread it and an ongoing armed conflict

[Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) @PeterHotez]

3/n to make matters worse, it’s not the Zaire strain for which we had a vaccine. The VZV Merck vaccine was the key to stabilizing the 2019 epidemic. But now this version of Ebola is only about 60% similar at amino acid level and I’m not confident the 2019 vaccine would X protect

[Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) @PeterHotez]

4/n we also have the World Cup scheduled here in Houston with people coming in to watch the DRC national team, which will present a challenge to triage and manage that situation, hence the glum look, this one will be around a while unfortunately
