WHO Declares Ebola Emergency While China's 'Walking Crematorium' EV Lock-Ins Reignite Door-Handle Debate
Two cross-border safety shocks landed on the same day. The WHO declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on May 16 for the Bundibugyo-strain Ebola outbreak in the DRC and Uganda — a strain with no approved vaccine or specific treatment.
