EA News Health Report

East African countries are reinforcing cross-border disease surveillance systems in response to increasing regional mobility and shared health risks.

Health officials report that new measures include improved data sharing, enhanced screening at border points, and joint training programs for health workers.

The initiative is particularly critical in managing diseases such as Mpox and other emerging infections that spread across borders through trade and travel routes.

Experts say the success of these efforts will depend on sustained political commitment and adequate funding.
