The main change in the last 24 hours was further official growth in the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with official figures at 9,086 confirmed cases and 4,384 deaths, and Kenya-linked reporting saying a second confirmed case has been identified. South Africa also published a measles update listing 6,186 confirmed cases with +553 cases in the latest report, while France's chikungunya bulletin reported 162 confirmed locally acquired cases across 22 transmission episodes. England is also now being tracked for a Salmonella outbreak, with officials confirming 36 cases linked to a genetically distinct egg-associated strain.

The clearest gaps remain in Ebola and Salmonella reporting. For Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, officials report 9,086 confirmed cases and 4,384 deaths, while unverified media reports in the last day go as high as 9,144 confirmed cases and 4,410 deaths; Kenya contact totals also vary by source from 57 to 128 under observation. For Salmonella in England, officials report 36 cases in the distinct egg-associated strain, while media reports carry 110 confirmed cases and 2 deaths, unverified.

Watch next for a directly accessible Ebola update from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uganda and Kenya, especially whether Kenya's second confirmed case leads to further confirmed transmission, and for the next South Africa measles and France chikungunya bulletins. High-attention records are Ebola Bundibugyo in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda, filoviruses, measles, antimicrobial resistance, avian influenza H5N1, cholera, diphtheria in sub-Saharan Africa, and respiratory season; elevated watches are chikungunya in France and Nicaragua, poliovirus, dengue, mpox, and yellow fever in Colombia.
