Burn Care Upgrade in Luanda: Angola’s Health Minister Sílvia Lutucuta praised decades of work by Neves Bendinha Hospital staff and highlighted preparations for a new Burn Hospital in Kilamba, noting the unit’s role since 1993, the 2023 reopening, and ongoing high demand and technology gaps. Sanitary Inspections Expand: Angola’s Inspector-General of Sanitary Activities announced nationwide inspection extensions to clinics, aesthetic medicine centers, and beauty salons, flagging unqualified staff, expired products, and facilities operating without proper authorization—warning irregular sites will be closed. Mpox Update in Cabinda: Cabinda recorded nine new monkeypox (Mpox) positives over three days, bringing active cases to 35; 26 suspected cases are being sampled, with patients managed at the Tchizo Smallpox Treatment Center and others under home isolation. Ebola Alarm in DRC: WHO and Africa CDC raised concerns that Ebola tracking is failing as cases rise in the DRC and spread toward Uganda, citing low contact tracing coverage (56.5% vs 95% target) and lab kit shortages. Public Health Risk from Pollution: Human Rights Watch warned that pollution linked to DRC oil producer Perenco—through gas flaring, waste burning, and spills—poses serious health risks, urging publication of interim audit findings and monitoring data. Food & Health Safety in Luanda: Authorities are also pushing broader compliance in health-related services, while Angola’s wider health system continues to prepare specialized care capacity.
