Bishop Willy Ngumbi of the Diocese of Goma is calling for widespread mobilization to contain an unprecedented Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

According to Vatican News, the bishop noted that some citizens still doubt the existence of the disease. He encouraged continued public awareness efforts to address this skepticism and assist in the response to the virus.

Bishop Ngumbi also urged people to help find a peaceful and diplomatic solution to end the conflict in the eastern part of the country.
