AGP Executive Report
Last update: 18 minutes agoEbola Vaccine Rollout: DR Congo received a first batch of 16,520 Ervebo doses in Kinshasa, with 70,000 total planned from the global stockpile; 20,000 are set aside for a Phase 3 trial and 50,000 for frontline health workers, as officials warn the current Bundibugyo outbreak may be far larger than reported. Outbreak Scale Warning: Africa CDC says surveillance may be catching only 30–40% of infections, estimating 10,000–15,000 cases, while WHO keeps the highest emergency status as deaths and spread accelerate. River Surveillance Push: Kinshasa launched “Congo River Without Ebola” to tighten checks at ports, expand isolation and treatment hubs, and deploy mobile labs to stop transmission along the Congo River toward cities like Kinshasa and Mbandaka. Frontline Strain: Health workers on the ground in eastern DRC report fear, burnout, and unpaid wages, even as cases surge. Security & Control: Separate reporting highlights how the FDLR has survived defeats by using indoctrination and religious authority alongside mining rackets and infiltration—showing why containment and governance remain hard in conflict zones.
