Ebola Alarm Hits Home: The CDC confirmed that one American doctor in the DRC has tested positive for the rare Bundibugyo Ebola strain, with symptoms starting over the weekend and a positive test late Sunday; the patient and six high-risk contacts are being moved to Germany for treatment and monitoring, while the CDC says the risk to the U.S. public remains low. Travel Crackdown: The U.S. announced 30-day entry restrictions for non-citizens who have been in Uganda, the DRC, or South Sudan in the past 21 days, alongside tougher screening at ports of entry. Regional Spread & Border Moves: WHO has declared the outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern as cases and suspected deaths climb in eastern DRC and Uganda; Rwanda temporarily closed key crossings near Goma after a confirmed case there. Uganda Disruption: Uganda postponed the Martyrs’ Day celebrations at Namugongo to protect pilgrims amid Ebola fears. Global Watch: Cambodia issued an Ebola prevention advisory despite reporting no cases, as countries tighten checks and prepare response plans.
