AGP Executive Report
Last update: a minute agoEbola Border Crackdown (US): The U.S. has expanded its Ebola travel ban, now blocking green-card holders who were in the DRC, Uganda, or South Sudan in the last 21 days—adding lawful permanent residents to earlier rules that targeted non-citizens. The move cites public-health “resource constraints” and kicks off new screening at major entry points. Airport Screening (Houston): Houston’s Bush Airport is set to join Atlanta and Washington Dulles as one of the only U.S. airports screening travelers from those countries, starting with flights after May 26. WHO Alarm (DRC/Uganda): WHO says the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak is spreading fast, with “scale and speed” concerns and a rare strain that has no approved vaccine or treatment, while insecurity and population movement are making containment harder. Travel Disruption: A Paris-to-Detroit Air France flight was diverted after a passenger boarded “in error,” showing how quickly rules are changing. Guinea Angle: With Guinea not named in the latest restrictions, the key takeaway is preparedness—screening and public awareness are being tightened across the region as cases rise.
