AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ebola Surge & Community Response: DR Congo’s Ebola outbreak has passed 4,000 confirmed cases (about 4,053) with roughly 1,850 deaths, as Africa CDC and WHO push for a village-led response, faster testing and care, and stronger support for frontline workers amid insecurity and misinformation. Vaccine Strategy Shift: WHO advisors say a licensed Zaire Ebola vaccine (Merck’s Ervebo) could be used as a stop-gap while research checks whether the current Bundibugyo strain is changing. Kinshasa River Alerts: Health teams intercepted boats near Kinshasa and tested passengers after suspected Ebola deaths; recent checks reported negative results for some screened travelers, but authorities keep expanding screening. Contact Tracing Failing: Africa CDC says contact tracing isn’t working well because many new cases are emerging through community spread. Minerals Policy & Tech: Kinshasa ordered an immediate halt to exporting copper and cobalt concentrates to keep more value in-country, while Congo also says it will investigate uranium claims tied to cobalt shipments to China. Mpox Vaccine Access: The EU authorized an mpox vaccine for children aged 2 to under 12, aiming to close a major DRC pediatric gap.
