The number of confirmed Ebola cases in Congo has surged past 8,000 as the country struggles with a shortage of health workers. The new statistics were released Sunday. The disease has spread to new health zones with 3,901 deaths reported as of Sept. 26. The World Health Organization has highlighted the seriousness of the outbreak and noted challenges in timely case detection and patient care. WHO said last week that the country is running out of health workers. Strikes have occurred because of payment delays. Some areas are showing improvement but the disease is spreading further. The outbreak is caused by the Bundibugyo virus and it has outpaced previous regional outbreaks. Trials for treatment are underway.
As Maine Republican Susan Collins seeks a sixth Senate term, some voters are bringing up her 2018 vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh as a Supreme Court justice. He was part of the court's conservative majority that overturned Roe v. Wade and the constitutional right to abortion in 2022. This election year, Democrat Troy Jackson is hoping there are enough voters upset at Collins' approval of President Donald Trump's nominee to help oust the veteran lawmaker. Despite Collins' moderate stance and past endorsements from Planned Parenthood, the Kavanaugh vote remains controversial. But on the campaign issues, many Maine voters say the economy is their top concern.
