AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ebola Update (DR Congo): WHO says the fastest-growing Ebola outbreak in eastern Congo likely began in February, months before the May declaration, with confirmed cases now above 4,200 and deaths over 1,900; early cases were even misread as malaria or typhoid, while responders warn the virus is “ahead of us.” Community Response: Africa CDC and WHO stress that contact tracing is failing, with 60–70% of new cases linked to spread within communities—pushing for faster, community-led action and better access to testing and treatment. Travel & Border Measures: The US tightened Ebola travel rules, blocking commercial flights for people who were in DR Congo within the prior 21 days, while Uganda and South Sudan travellers face extra screening via designated airports; Canada and several other countries also introduced entry restrictions. Uganda Health & Resilience: Uganda launched a three-year climate resilience push for livestock, land and insurance systems to protect food systems from worsening climate shocks. Youth & Health Equity: In Kampala, African youth called for peacebuilding and skills to tackle unemployment and insecurity, linking social stability to healthier futures. Health Tech (Kenya): Kenya’s Social Health Authority shift is driving hospital upgrades and faster claims processing, with more facilities contracted and paid out under the new system.
