Talks are underway between authorities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the World Health Organization to expedite the start of a multi-armed Phase 3 clinical trial of vaccines geared towards helping to contain spread of the Bundibugyo virus in the northeast of the country, which the director-general of the global health agency warned Wednesday is on track to become the largest Ebola outbreak on record.
