DescriptionThe outbreak of yellow fever, a virus related to Zika and spread in the same way, which began in Angola in December, has now reached the neighbouring country of Democratic Republic of Congo. Yellow fever is far more dangerous than Zika, with a fatality rate of up to 33% in previous outbreaks. There is a vaccine, but global supplies are running low.
