Ebola Outbreak Could Push Nearly One Million More People into Poverty and Cost Africa Billions, warns UN Development ProgrammeA new United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) assessment warns that the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is sparking a far-reaching socioeconomic crisis which could push 985,000 more people into poverty, with women disproportionately suffering the economic and health fallout. The Ebola crisis also risks eliminating tens of thousands of jobs, disrupting education and healthcare services, and costing African economies up to US$ 3.6 billion if broader regional and global shocks intensify.www.undp.org

Canada lost its #measles elimination status today. Here's something @jwnickerson.bsky.social and I wrote a while back in @theconversation.com for @msf.ca: "Measles is a humanitarian issue, and its unwelcome reappearance in Canada is a reminder of its importance" theconversation.com/measles-is-a...

It can affect adults, but young children are at particular risk.theconversation.com
