DR Congo's Mpox Vaccine Delivery Delayed in an Ongoing Outbreak Griffith Sarah Aug 27, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link A healthcare worker approaches a group of patients affected by mpox at a treatment center in the Democratic Republic of Congo The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) will not receive its first batch of mpox vaccines as anticipated this week, according to the head of the country’s response team. This comes as the DRC faces a new variant of the virus, which has already spread beyond its borders. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared mpox a global public health emergency on August 14, marking the second such declaration in two years. Hopes were high in Congo after its health minister announced on August 19 that the Central African nation expected its first vaccine doses this week, following pledges of support from the United States and Japan. However, Cris Kacita, head of the DRC's response team, confirmed that the vaccine delivery has been delayed. "No, there are still several processes to follow," Kacita cited. He emphasized that the Congolese pharmaceutical regulatory agency must first establish contact with Bavarian Nordic, the Danish drugmaker producing the mpox vaccine, for guidance before the doses can be shipped to the country. "So we're waiting," he added. Bavarian Nordic is one of the few pharmaceutical companies currently producing an mpox vaccine. The company informed the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) in mid-August that it has the capacity to manufacture 10 million doses by the end of 2025, with up to 2 million doses available for distribution this year. The arrival of these vaccines is crucial in addressing the disparity in vaccine access that left African nations without doses during the 2022 global mpox outbreak, while Europe and the United States had widespread access. Since January 2023, the DRC has recorded over 27,000 suspected cases and 1,100 deaths, with the majority of fatalities occurring among children. As the DRC continues to battle the virus, the delay in vaccine delivery adds to the challenges faced by the country in containing the outbreak. The international community's support will be vital in ensuring that the vaccines reach the region promptly, preventing further spread and safeguarding vulnerable populations.

Chelsea Engaged in Deadline Day Negotiations for Osimhen Transfer Prince Jean Aug 29, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Chelsea in Advanced Talks for Napoli’s Victor Osimhen as Transfer Deadline Approaches. Credit:gettyimages Chelsea remains determined to secure the signing of Victor Osimhen from Napoli before the summer transfer window closes. According to Ben Jacobs, the London club is currently engaged in last-minute negotiations with the 25-year-old Nigerian striker regarding personal terms. The Blues are keen to reach an agreement with Osimhen before submitting a formal bid to Napoli. However, the deal hinges on whether the striker's wage demands align with Chelsea's existing wage structure. Ensuring this alignment is crucial for the transfer to proceed smoothly. On the other hand, Napoli is anticipating an offer from Chelsea for their star forward. The Serie A club is prepared to negotiate, but it remains uncertain whether Chelsea will follow through with an official bid. The urgency for a reliable goalscorer is evident, as Nicolas Jackson has struggled to meet expectations, making the acquisition of a proven striker a top priority for the club. While Victor Osimhen remains a primary target, Chelsea is also monitoring other options, including Brentford’s Ivan Toney. The club’s decision to advance with the Osimhen deal will depend largely on the financial feasibility of the move.

AFCON Qualifiers: Libya Defeats Rwanda 1-0 at Amahoro Stadium Prince Jean Nov 14, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Libya stuns Rwanda with a late goal at the newly constructed Amahoro Stadium, despite the Amavubi dominating most of the match. Libya secured a 1-0 win over Rwanda in their Group D AFCON Qualifier match held at the newly constructed Amahoro Stadium in Kigali on November 14, 2024. The match was a disappointment for the Amavubi, who dominated the game for the first 80 minutes but conceded a late goal in the final 10 minutes. Rwanda controlled much of the game, creating chances and holding possession. However, their inability to convert opportunities cost them dearly. Libya’s F. Al-Mesmary scored the decisive goal in the 84th minute, taking advantage of a lapse in Rwanda’s defense. The game saw several yellow cards, with Rwanda’s T. Manzi booked in the 76th minute and Libya’s M. A. Wuheeshi and A. Saleh cautioned earlier in the match. This loss leaves Rwanda in third place in Group D with 3 points from five matches, while Libya moves level on points but remains fourth due to goal difference. Nigeria leads the group with 10 points, followed by Benin with 6. Rwanda will need to address their missed chances and defensive weaknesses as their qualification campaign nears its end.

Tanzania Might Lose Spot in 2025 Africa Cup of Nations Prince Jean Nov 22, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Tanzania's national team risks disqualification from the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations due to alleged player registration issues. Tanzania’s national football team could lose its 1-0 win against Guinea, potentially costing them a spot in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. After losing to Tanzania, Guinea’s Football Federation filed a complaint with the Confederation of African Football (CAF), claiming Tanzania violated player registration rules.

Amadou Onana Shines in Aston Villa's 2-1 Victory Over West Ham Prince Jean Aug 18, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp Copy link Amadou Onana celebrates after scoring a powerful header during Aston Villa's 2-1 victory over West Ham at the London Stadium, marking a memorable debut for the Belgian midfielder. Credit:gettyimages Aston Villa secured a hard-fought 2-1 win against West Ham at the London Stadium, with a standout performance from new signing Amadou Onana. The Belgian midfielder, who joined Villa in the summer transfer window, made an immediate impact, scoring his first Premier League goal in just four minutes. Villa's early pressure paid off when Tomas Soucek conceded a corner, and Youri Tielemans delivered a pinpoint cross. Onana, rising above the West Ham defense, powered a header into the net, marking a dream debut for the former Everton star. His goal set the tone for a match in which Villa looked the more cohesive side, despite West Ham's heavy summer spending spree. West Ham, under the new management of Julen Lopetegui, struggled to gel as a unit despite their extensive recruitment. Only Max Kilman and Guido Rodriguez from their new signings started the match, and the lack of chemistry showed. Villa capitalized on the disjointed play, with Leon Bailey nearly doubling their lead after rounding goalkeeper Alphonse Areola, only to see his effort strike the post. The Hammers were handed a lifeline just before halftime when Matty Cash fouled Soucek in the box. Lucas Paqueta, amidst ongoing FA allegations of intentional bookings, took charge of the penalty and coolly converted, leveling the score at 1-1. Unai Emery's tactical adjustments proved decisive. He substituted England international Ollie Watkins for Colombian striker Jhon Duran after 60 minutes. Duran, who had been linked with a move to West Ham during the transfer window, came back to haunt the Hammers. In the 79th minute, Jacob Ramsey's pull-back found Duran, who slotted home from close range, sealing the win for Villa and leaving West Ham to reflect on missed opportunities. Despite West Ham's high-profile summer signings, including Germany's Niclas Fullkrug, it was Villa's Onana who stole the spotlight. His commanding presence in midfield and crucial goal earned Aston Villa an impressive start to the season, while West Ham's defensive woes from last season appear to persist.
