Speaking in the House of Lords on 21 May 2026

Debate

Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda: Ebola Outbreak

Contribution

I agree with that, and we are working closely with the WHO. On vaccine development, no vaccine is currently able to be deployed against this particular strain, but work is going on at speed to examine the utilisation of vaccines that have already been developed and tested, and whether they may be effective against this strain. The noble Lord will also understand the complexity and difficulty of distributing and administering vaccine in this context.
