Mpox Alert (Guinea-Bissau): UNICEF says Guinea-Bissau is facing its first mpox outbreak, with 7 confirmed cases (all adults) and 46 suspected cases—half of them children, including 16 under age four. UNICEF warns the country’s surveillance is fragile and fears cases could be missed, especially among children; it also flags school reopening next month as a risk for wider spread. Health Facility Sanitation (West Africa, incl. Guinea-Bissau): WHO/UNICEF report that only 7% of Guinea-Bissau health care facilities met basic sanitation standards in 2025, highlighting gaps in usable toilets, staff access, menstrual hygiene facilities, and accessibility for people with limited mobility. Polio Update (Africa): WHO confirms poliovirus type 2 transmission has been interrupted in five African countries—Burundi, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Republic of Congo, and Uganda—after assessments and targeted vaccination and surveillance efforts. Ebola Vaccine (DRC, global stockpile): WHO and Africa CDC back an allocation of 70,000 Ervebo Ebola vaccine doses to the Democratic Republic of the Congo for a Bundibugyo outbreak response, including 50,000 for frontline health workers and 20,000 for a Phase 3 trial to clarify protection against Bundibugyo virus.
