世界卫生组织总干事于2026年5月17日宣布刚果民主共和国和乌干达的埃博拉邦迪布焦病毒疫情构成国际关注的突发公共卫生事件(PHEIC),但不符合大流行标准1。5月19日,IHR应急委员会召开首次会议,确认了这一判定1。
截至5月22日,乌干达报告两例确诊病例,均与刚果民主共和国有流行病学关联1。在风险评估中,刚果民主共和国被列为"极高"风险国家,乌干达被评为"高"风险,邻国同样被评为"高"风险,其他国家为"低"风险1。
鉴于目前无获批的邦迪布焦病毒治疗药物或疫苗1,世卫组织向各国发布临时建议,指导采取相应措施,包括建立协调机制、加强监测、进行为期21天的接触者追踪、实施感染预防控制、开展社区宣传、建立患者转诊通道和规范安全埋葬1。世卫组织不建议各国暂停与受影响国家的航班或拒绝入境1。
The World Health Organization has declared the Ebola Bundibugyo virus epidemic affecting the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda to constitute a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), though it does not meet pandemic criteria 1. The Director-General made this announcement on May 17, 2026, and the IHR Emergency Committee convened on May 19 to confirm the determination 1.
As of May 22, 2026, Uganda had reported two confirmed cases, both epidemiologically linked to the Democratic Republic of the Congo 1.

Currently, no approved treatments or vaccines for Bundibugyo virus are available 1.
The WHO has issued temporary recommendations guiding countries to establish coordination mechanisms, strengthen surveillance, conduct contact tracing with 21-day monitoring periods, implement infection prevention and control measures, conduct community awareness campaigns, establish patient referral pathways, and ensure safe burial practices 1.
