世界衛生組織表示,自5月爆發的伊波拉疫情已在剛果民主共和國及烏干達造成超過1000人死亡。民主剛果累計2473例、999死,烏干達20例、2死。疫情主要集中在民主剛果伊圖里省。

歐洲疾病預防與控制中心(ECDC)及世界衛生組織(WHO)支援的監測網站「EuroMOMO」統計顯示,6月下旬歐洲熱浪期間,通報的超額死亡人數超過1萬人,其中逾9000人為65歲以上長者。法國和比利時記錄到「非常高的超額死亡率」。

世衛組織最新報告指出,全球約每5人就有1人一生中罹癌,92%的人會受影響。預計至2050年,全球每年新增癌症病例將增至近3500萬例。高低收入國家間的5年存活率差距擴大,部分低收入國家缺乏治療設備與藥物,患者常因費用放棄治療。

世界衛生組織官員表示,剛果民主共和國的伊波拉疫情尚未穩定且仍在擴大,人口流動是病毒傳播的主要原因。疫情已造成1561起確診病例和506起死亡病例。
