Last update: 2 hours agoEbola Border Shock: A US-linked travel clampdown on Ebola sent an Air France flight from Paris to Detroit to divert to Montreal after US authorities said a passenger from DR Congo should not have boarded, as Washington limits entry from DR Congo, South Sudan and Uganda to Washington Dulles only. Regional Alarm: The DR Congo and Uganda outbreak is still accelerating, with WHO warning the “scale and speed” are worrying; DR Congo health officials cite hundreds of suspected cases and rising deaths, while cross-border spread keeps health teams under pressure. Burundi Response: Burundi has stepped up Ebola surveillance and border screening after the DR Congo outbreak, including temperature checks, rapid detection kits, and tighter monitoring at entry points. Health Access Elsewhere: In calmer news for Burundi, nearly 300 cataract patients are set to receive free surgery during a 21-day “Walk Towards Light” campaign with Chinese ophthalmologists.
