The recent emergence of a mystery flu-like illness in Panzi, DRC has raised significant concerns, especially as the region grapples with existing health crises like mpox.
Denise Kabeya shared the tragic story of her 12-year-old daughter Diane, who exhibited flu-like symptoms before succumbing to the unknown illness, highlighting the deadly impact on families.
Since October, 514 cases of the undiagnosed disease have been reported, with the WHO investigating the outbreak, which has led to over 30 hospital deaths.
Congolese health authorities report that most affected are children under 14, particularly alarming as children under five account for a significant number of the cases and fatalities.
