AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ebola Update (DRC-Uganda): WHO warns the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in eastern DR Congo is “evolving so fast,” with hundreds of new cases and no approved vaccine, while Africa CDC urges stronger exit screening and warns blanket travel bans can backfire. Human Toll: Reports include a baby’s death at an orphanage in Ituri and rising fears as burials and care are strained by conflict and shortages. Regional Response: Africa CDC and AU leaders call for more funding and faster disbursement, with a high-level meeting mobilising pledges for the joint response across Congo and Uganda. Travel Impact: Uganda Tourism Board says Ebola fears are already driving booking cancellations, as travellers weigh risk and airlines tighten screening. Uganda Aviation Boost: The AfDB approved about Shs650bn (€155.99m) to upgrade Arua Airport into an international-standard facility, aiming to strengthen West Nile connectivity for passengers, cargo, and emergency operations. Tourism Outreach: Uganda showcases its attractions to 400+ Turkish travel stakeholders in Gaziantep and Istanbul roadshows, pushing new packages and partnerships. Health Scare Abroad: A suspected Ebola case in Kerala linked to travel via Uganda tested negative, easing immediate fears.
