US doctor recovers from Ebola in Germany as DRC cases surge to 488

A doctor from the United States who fell ill with Ebola while working in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has recovered after treatment in Germany. The doctor, who worked as a surgeon for a Christian missionary group, was admitted to the Charite public hospital in Berlin after testing positive for the rare Bundibugyo virus. He received care including experimental therapies and was cleared to leave quarantine along with his family, who had been in isolation as high-risk contacts.
