AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ebola Update (DRC-Uganda): Africa CDC chief Jean Kaseya warns the fast-expanding Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in eastern DRC could become worse than the worst on record, citing major gaps in contact tracing and community resistance; latest figures point to hundreds of cases and rising deaths, with Uganda reporting 19 confirmed cases and one probable case. Travel & Entry Rules: Uganda’s Ministry of Health says travellers do not need “Ebola-free” certificates for departure and warns of fraudsters selling fake tests; meanwhile, countries are tightening or easing entry steps linked to Ebola risk, including Israel’s shifting restrictions. Regional Coordination: WHO commends Uganda’s response but urges vigilance and cross-border cooperation as labs, testing, and case management are scaled up. Health Security Beyond Uganda: China issued a revised Ebola prevention plan requiring 21-day monitoring for close contacts and travellers from affected areas, with faster reporting by institutions. Tourism Angle: With Ebola fears affecting holiday plans and quarantine rules in some destinations, Uganda travellers are being urged to verify entry requirements before booking.
