- A World Health Organization advisory group has backed further research in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to assess whether the Ervebo vaccine, developed for the Zaire strain of Ebola, could provide protection against the rare Bundibugyo virus. WHO says current evidence is insufficient to determine whether Ervebo is effective against the strain. Epidemiologist Placide Mbala of the University of Kinshasa discusses the proposed research and its potential implications for the outbreak response.

- Talk Africa Plus | Africa's Energy Independence: Can the Continent Power Its Own Future?
- Runtime

- Description
- Africa is home to some of the world's richest renewable energy resources, yet more than 600 million people still live without access to electricity. From abundant sunshine and powerful rivers to vast wind and geothermal potential, the continent has no shortage of natural resources. The challenge is turning that potential into reliable, affordable power for its people.
In this co-produced podcast by CGTN Africa and @ktnnews_kenya, we explore Africa's energy paradox and ask what it will take for the continent to achieve energy independence. Why do power shortages persist despite Africa's enormous energy wealth? Can renewable energy alone meet the continent's growing demand? And what policies and investments are needed to build a secure, sustainable energy future? #TalkAfrica
