AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Ebola Emergency Escalates: WHO kept the highest emergency status for DR Congo’s Ebola outbreak as experts warn it’s spreading at “unprecedented speed,” with confirmed cases now above 5,000 and deaths rising fast. Vaccine Push: Kinshasa is set to receive 70,000 Ervebo doses, with 20,000 earmarked for a clinical trial against the Bundibugyo strain while 50,000 go to frontline health workers. Hidden Spread Concerns: Africa CDC says the official tally may capture only 30–40% of infections, estimating the outbreak could be 3 times larger, with modeling suggesting 10,000–15,000 cases. River Surveillance Plan: DR Congo launched “Congo River Without Ebola” to strengthen monitoring along the Congo River and protect major hubs, including routes toward Kinshasa. Tech for Connectivity: Airtel Africa and Starlink launched Africa’s first commercial satellite-to-phone service in the DRC, aiming to keep messaging and light data working in areas with weak mobile coverage. War-Time Information Limits: CPJ urged authorities to restore internet and mobile services cut off in Fizi Territory for over a month, saying it harms rights and reporting.
