    Outbreaks and Plastic Roofs

    The latest mpox outbreak, with 17000 cases and 500 deaths weighed heavily on the SADC summit in Harare at the weekend. Europeans are racing to get vaccines, Countries are issuing warning to travellers. The WHO urges rich countries not to hoard the vaccine. That summit showed SADC to be the most stable of the African regional groupings, although the member with possibly the most potential - i.e. the DRC - is providing the biggest headache. Rare good news from Sierra Leone: plastic roof sheeting to protect against the heat wave. It seems to work and will be rolled out to 35% of informal settlements.

    Politics or Transaction?

    When do political decisions have business consequences? JJ Cornish and Gareth talk about recent developments, including French President Emmanuel Macron recognising Moroccan autonomy over Western Sahara, skipping all the normal steps in such a momentous move because he does not have a government to go to. The move comes as France bids for high-speed rail in Morocco. Algeria says withdrawing its ambassador is only the first step in its protest action. The EU, the UN, and a plethora of French political parties have slammed Macron's move. The DRC reached a deal with Rwanda over stopping 30 months of deadly warfare in Eastern Congo. Can the reality of a renewal of the Hutu-Tutsi conflict hold? Nigeria's Gen X protests against the Abuja government have cost at least 13 lives. They are inspired by their counterparts in Kenya and Uganda, who are taking to the streets. President Bola Tinubu urges the rioters to desist and engage in talks with his government.
