AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoEbola Update: DR Congo’s worst-ever Ebola outbreak has passed 7,000 confirmed cases, with 7,022 infections and 3,398 deaths reported, and the virus now confirmed in a seventh province, South Ubangi—raising alarms about wider spread and contact tracing. Government vs WHO: Kinshasa says the outbreak has “passed its peak” and is under control, but WHO and Africa CDC warn transmission remains uneven and risks persist, especially where insecurity, displacement, and health worker strikes disrupt care. New Case Far from Epicentre: A fatal Ebola case was detected in northwestern Sud-Ubangi after a man traveled through multiple provinces and neighboring countries, prompting fears of many contacts. School Tragedy in Bukavu: In eastern DRC, a school fire triggered a stampede in Bukavu, killing at least 26 children (UNICEF) with dozens injured, as pupils reportedly jumped from upper floors and some died from smoke and trampling.
