No kisses, no hugs: How Ebola is changing weddings in Congo

Despite the Ebola outbreak in DR Congo's city of Bunia, some families were determined to go ahead with their relatives’ weddings. However, the local authorities and the church imposed certain measures that had to be followed, even though not everyone was happy about it. Solange Hahati, a bride, said that they had invited 300 people to her wedding, but when they arrived at the church, the church authorities allowed only 50 people to enter. The Democratic Republic of Congo has been facing a new Ebola outbreak since last May.
