The aid organization Doctors Without Borders believes that the measles has been forgotten, making it difficult to get money to fight the infection, while billions flow into the fight against Ebola.
Over 145,000 have been infected with the measles in Congo-Kinshasa this year. Doctors Without Borders has cared for over 27,000 of them, while vaccinating 474,860 children.
According to the aid organization, more money is needed quickly, as the measles epidemic has worsened in recent months.
