AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Ebola Escalation: WHO has declared the DRC–Uganda Ebola outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, with the latest figures putting the crisis among the biggest in history—nearly 750 suspected cases and about 204 deaths in the DRC, while Uganda reports three more cases (five confirmed total) and one death. Cross-Border Friction: In eastern DRC, attacks on Ebola response sites are intensifying, including tents set ablaze and patients fleeing during burial disputes—fueling fears the virus will spread faster than containment efforts. Regional Alarm: Africa CDC warns 10 countries are at risk, citing high mobility and insecurity, while countries and airlines tighten screening and travel advisories. Uganda Politics: President Museveni also hit back at journalist Andrew Mwenda after being labeled “senile,” defending his industrialisation agenda. Sports/Isolation: The DRC World Cup squad faces US-linked isolation rules, but says it will not change preparations.
