“Weeping from Ebola”

In this photograph taken Sunday 14 July 2019, Ismael Kasereka, 14, weeps at the funeral of his uncle and aunt in Beni, Congo DRC. Mussa Kathembo, an Islamic scholar who had prayed over those who were sick, and his wife Asiya died of Ebola. More than 1,600 people in eastern Congo have died as the virus has spread in areas too dangerous for health teams to access.
