BUNIA: Confirmed cases of Ebola in Congo have reached 2,011, including 754 deaths, according to government data released overnight in what authorities say is the fastest-growing outbreak on record. Health workers at the Bunia General Hospital went on strike on Wednesday, the latest group to have walked off their job at the epicenter over payment issues. Health professionals and other frontline workers barricaded the entrance of the hospital, lamenting they haven’t received any compensation despite working under difficult conditions.

The striking staff includes epidemiologists, case investigators, drivers and gravediggers who say they have not been paid by the Congolese authorities

The outbreak has caused at least 1,830 confirmed cases in Congo, including 648 deaths, health officials said. Cases have also been confirmed in neighboring Uganda.

Walkout over late payments comes as public health officials confirm that the virus has reached two more provinces.
