The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended adding two new vaccine candidates to the ongoing Ebola trial in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The vaccines, ChAdOx1 BDBV and mRNA-1469, are specifically designed to protect against the Bundibugyo virus, which is responsible for the current outbreak. This marks the first time vaccines targeting this specific Ebola strain will be evaluated during an epidemic. The trial, led by the National Institute of Biomedical Research of DRC, aims to determine the efficacy of these vaccines against the Bundibugyo virus.
