NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The coverage of the Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo broadly agrees on the severity and speed of the outbreak. However, there are some differences in framing, with the Mirror News using more dramatic language, describing it as the 'fastest-growing in history', while centre outlets like Independent World and Sky World focus on the record speed and grim milestones. The tone remains serious across all outlets, but the Mirror News' emphasis on the soaring cases and deaths stands out.
