George Mason University School of Systems Biology professor Ancha warned of an unknown virus whose death toll is already approaching 150.
We are talking about an outbreak of an unknown disease that is currently being recorded in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Ancha Baranova shared this alarming information while talking to Lenta.ru journalists.
According to the expert, the disease, which has not yet been identified, has symptoms similar to flu. In addition, severe headaches and bleeding in the eyeballs are also characteristic.
So far, cases of the disease have been recorded only in one of the poor regions of the African republic. At the moment, 143 fatal cases are known.
At the same time, medical experts are still finding it difficult to say whether this disease is new or whether it is still an old virus.
Rospotrebnadzor did not ignore the situation that had developed in Congo and assured that they were monitoring its development.
