During the ongoing Bundibugyo ebolavirus disease outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we quantify introduction risk and sustained-transmission potential across the country. This identifies priority zones far from currently affected areas, where rapid amplification could follow introduction and response efforts should be focused.
