AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Ebola Cross-Border Alert: Humanitarian teams in South Sudan’s border areas are screening travellers and educating communities as the eastern DRC outbreak spreads, raising fears of new cases crossing into South Sudan. Ebola Response Funding Pressure: The UN says the DRC Ebola response is only 48% funded and could run out of money within weeks, even as cases and deaths keep climbing. Ebola in the Region: Uganda’s Ebola outbreak was declared over after 42 days without a new confirmed case, but regional risk remains as the DRC outbreak accelerates into more health zones. Blood Supply Watch: WHO warns South Sudan is still too dependent on family and replacement blood donors; voluntary non-remunerated donations remain low, threatening timely care for childbirth bleeding, severe anemia, trauma and surgery. Maternal & Child Health: UNICEF reports only about 71% of South Sudan mothers exclusively breastfeed for the first six months, with officials urging early initiation and continued breastfeeding. Measles Update: Magwi County in Eastern Equatoria reports a measles outbreak with 88 suspected cases and confirmed positives earlier this year. Public Health & Safety: Juba City Council warns residents that dumping rubbish on streets is a crime and can spread sickness. Trauma Care Under Strain: At Wau Teaching Hospital, staff describe overwhelming numbers of gunshot wound patients and the mental toll of treating the wounded. Canada Travel Rules: Canada extended Ebola-related entry restrictions for people from DRC, Uganda and South Sudan, keeping a 21-day quarantine requirement.
