With the DRC total past 1,000 confirmed cases, this is now the second-largest Ebola outbreak on record. Suspected count is the latest published figure (116, as of 1 June). Case-fatality rate = 440 confirmed deaths ÷ 1,427 confirmed cases ≈ 31%. Sources: Africa CDC · WHO Disease Outbreak News · ECDC

About
Live Ebola Map originally launched in 2014 during the West African outbreak. The site went viral on Reddit and tracked over a thousand reports across the world, all moderated and source-cited by volunteers and the community.
It's 2026. A new outbreak is unfolding. The map is back, with the same mission: get the message out, give people the data, source every claim.
