Mpox Watch: WHO reports 11 African countries with active mpox transmission in six weeks (6 Jul–16 Aug 2026), totaling 1,153 confirmed cases and 7 deaths; Angola leads with 184 cases, followed by Kenya (94) and the DRC (41), with WHO warning figures may be undercounted due to reporting delays and weaker surveillance. Patient Safety: Angola’s hospital quality push gets a spotlight as Ges-Saúde urges safer care and better patient involvement, while health workers flag medication errors tied to misdiagnosis, wrong prescriptions, and poor communication—risks that can undermine treatment for chronic conditions. Healthcare Access & Nutrition: A WIC program update shows how services are reorganizing—Steuben and LaGrange WIC offices are merging staffing and relocating to a medical complex near Parkview LaGrange Hospital, aiming to keep nutrition support and breastfeeding help fully staffed. Mental Health in Focus: A community mental health walk in Angola (Steuben County) is set for Sept. 26, promoting awareness, stigma reduction, and self-care with local health partners. Livestock Health Security: Tanzania, Angola and the DRC plan a regional push to stop PPR (“goat and sheep plague”) spreading south, using coordinated vaccination and surveillance to protect livelihoods and food security.
