96 Global Health NOW: Women Denied Aid in Afghanistan; Contraceptive Gaps in Sub-Saharan Africa; and Mass-Producing Mosquitoes in Brazil September 9, 2025 An Afghan women and her children sit in a makeshift camp in the aftermath of an earthquake, in the Nurgal district, Kunar Province, on September 4. Stringer/AFP via Getty Women Denied Aid in Afghanistan  
In the devastation following Afghanistan鈥檚 6.0-magnitude earthquake Sunday, humanitarian workers are struggling to reach more survivors, 鈥攚ith a narrow, one-way mountain road partially blocked by large rocks from landslides the only way to get to affected areas. 
  • ~40,000 people have been impacted by the earthquake, and 5,000+ homes have been destroyed in eastern Afghanistan.  
Emergency responders are trying to prioritize aid to women, children, and locals with disabilities, but female survivors have been deprived of care as Taliban-enforced gender rules prevent male first responders and doctors from assisting them鈥攅ven in emergencies, .     Pushed aside, passed over: After the quake, which killed 2,200+ and injured 3,600+, women reported being pushed aside or passed over in emergency rooms. Male medical teams reported being hesitant even to pull women from rubble. 
  • 鈥淏eing a woman here means we are always the last to be seen,鈥 said a 19-year-old mother. 
The WHO has called for authorities to ease restrictions on female aid workers, saying their presence is essential, especially as women are not permitted to travel for care without male guardians, .    A deepening care crisis: With women currently barred from medical education and training, the shortage of female medical providers will only worsen, .  GLOBAL HEALTH VOICES The Latest One-Liners   The DRC health ministry has reported 32 Ebola cases and 15 deaths鈥攊ncluding the index patient, a 34-year-old pregnant woman, and two of the health workers who cared for her; the cases are from Kasai province, which borders Angola.  
Contaminated metal at an industrial site in Indonesia may be the source of radioactive material that led to massive recalls of imported frozen shrimp, per the International Atomic Energy Agency; efforts are underway to halt more U.S.-bound shipments.  
Canadian researchers say that sepsis should be recognized as a public health emergency, highlighting significant gaps in policies and training standards throughout Canada and calling for a coordinated national action plan to address sepsis.     Extreme heat drove increased sugar consumption in U.S. households in 2004鈥2019, especially in the form of sugar-sweetened beverages, with greatest impacts among disadvantaged groups; projected future increases in temperature and sugar consumption point to the need 鈥渢o explore dietary adaptation to climate change.鈥   U.S. and Global Health Policy News As Covid surges in the US, Americans can鈥檛 get vaccinated: 鈥榯errified I might kill somebody鈥 鈥

  • Benin, Mali, and Tanzania lead in use, due to high availability, strong family planning services, and community outreach.  
  • Namibia, Niger, and Togo have the lowest rates due to disjointed health infrastructure, misinformation, and cultural barriers. 
Improving access: Researchers recommend a 鈥渕ulti-pronged approach鈥 to expanding access to LARCs, including training providers, strengthening supply chains, and boosting educational campaigns.       DATA POINT

The sprawling Wolbito do Brasil facility in Curitiba is abuzz with innovation鈥攁nd the drone of millions of mosquitoes. 
  It is the world鈥檚 largest 鈥渕osquito factory鈥濃攑roducing 100 million eggs of a modified Aedes aegypti mosquito each week in scaled-up efforts to combat dengue and Zika. 
  • The modified mosquitoes, dubbed 鈥渨olbitos,鈥 are infected with Wolbachia, a bacterium that blocks virus transmission and is passed to offspring.  
Operational hurdles: The facility has had to overcome a range of logistical challenges: fine-tuning climate control, switching blood sourcing, ensuring some insecticide resistance, and cultivating community buy-in in the face of misinformation. 
  Taking flight: The factory released its first wolbitos last month in Santa Catarina and plans to release more soon in Brasilia.

96 Global Health NOW: August 2025 Recap September 8, 2025 A medical worker disinfects a local Ebola treatment center during a 2021 outbreak in North Kivu province, northeastern DRC. March 21, 2021. Alain Uaykani/Xinhua via Getty Ebola Outbreak Tests Shaky Global Health Ground    A new Ebola outbreak in the DRC is sparking global health security concerns in a destabilized public health landscape, as practitioners fear depleted resources and disrupted leadership will hamper response efforts.  
  Rapid transmission: So far 15 deaths and 28 cases have been reported in the DRC outbreak, which started after a pregnant woman showing symptoms of hemorrhagic fever was admitted to the hospital in late August. The health workers who treated her also became ill, .  
  • The nation鈥檚 health system has already been weakened by intensified conflict and by U.S. aid cuts, . 
Urgent response: The WHO has deployed experts and emergency supplies; meanwhile, vaccines are being sent from Kinshasa to contain the spread.  
  Bigger picture: As the outbreak spreads, the U.S. faces major setbacks in pandemic preparedness, , as the White House has dismantled key biosecurity offices, slashed CDC鈥檚 staff and shaken up its leadership, withdrawn from the WHO, and weakened global health ties and surveillance. 
  • 鈥淲ith no warning, we will have less ability to stop the disease at its source, and less power, if it reaches our shores, to save American lives,鈥 the commentary鈥檚 authors write. 
GLOBAL HEALTH VOICES The Latest One-Liners   Mpox is no longer an international health emergency, per the WHO, given 鈥渟ustained declines in cases鈥 in the DRC, Burundi, Sierra Leone, and Uganda; however, the Africa CDC confirmed it still constitutes a continental public health emergency, pointing to rising cases in Ghana, Liberia, Kenya, Zambia, and Tanzania.  
A new anti-gay law introduces prison sentences of up to five years and a fine for those who 鈥減romote homosexuality鈥 in Burkina Faso, formerly a relatively safe space in West Africa for the gay community.      A new bat-borne pathogen, dubbed the Salt Gully virus, has been identified in Australia鈥檚 flying foxes, though there have been no reports of human spillover; the virus is related to Nipah and Hendra viruses.     A federal report on alcohol consumption and links to cancer has been pulled back by the HHS and will not be submitted to Congress; U.S. Dietary Guidelines will instead be shaped by an industry-favored competing report that found that moderate alcohol consumption was healthy.   AUGUST MUST-READS Wartime Russia Is Losing the Battle Against HIV 
  War has significantly disrupted HIV prevention and care in Russia.    
By the numbers: In the first year of the war alone, the recorded incidence of HIV among military personnel soared by 40X+鈥攁nd the proportion of Russian HIV patients receiving antiretroviral therapy has dipped below 50% for the first time in many years.     Wartime barriers:  
  • Amplified anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment in the country, the removal of NGOs assisting in HIV care, and blood transfusions and the reuse of syringes in wartime field hospitals. 
   
  The Troubled Fight Against Polio    The WHO and its partners came close to scoring a huge win against polio in 2021鈥攔ecording just five cases of the natural virus that year. But last year, the poliovirus eluded vaccination efforts and caused 99 cases.     In a deeply reported investigation, the AP blames misinformation, mismanagement, a flawed strategy, and the oral vaccine鈥攈ighlighting particular challenges to vaccination in Afghanistan and Pakistan (the only countries with uninterrupted polio transmission).      But still: 3 billion children have been vaccinated and ~20 million people have avoided paralysis since the Global Polio Eradication Initiative鈥檚 founding in 1988. 
  • 鈥淭here鈥檚 so many children being protected today because of the work that was done over the past 40 years. ... Let鈥檚 not overdramatize the challenges, because that leads to children getting paralyzed,鈥 says Jamal Ahmed, WHO鈥檚 polio director. 
 
 
  Dispatches from 鈥楳olar City鈥    Los Algodones, Mexico, nicknamed 鈥淢olar City,鈥 is home to ~5,500 residents鈥攁nd 1,000+ dentists.   
  • The town has become known for its sprawling network of dental clinics that draw 1 million+ Americans seeking affordable dental care. 
  • A root canal in Molar City can cost less than one-fifth of what it would across the border 10 minutes away, making the town 鈥減art Lourdes and part Costco鈥 for medical tourists, writes journalist Burkhard Bilger鈥攚ho details his own quest pursuing dental care in Los Algodones. 
  AUGUST EXCLUSIVE A resting female Aedes aegypti mosquito. CDC/ Amy E. Lockwood, MS World Mosquito Day 2025: A New World, Crises, and Opportunities    
Malaria still packs a major punch (~263 million malaria cases and 597,000 malaria deaths in 2023, per the WHO), but the toll of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes鈥攖he vector for dengue, chikungunya, yellow fever, and Zika鈥攊s rapidly expanding, eclipsing Anopheles as our greatest mosquito challenge,  to mark World Mosquito Day (August 20). 
  • For dengue, the toll jumped from 6.5 million+ cases and 7,300 global deaths in 2023 to 14 million cases and 10,000 deaths in 2024. 
  • Yet, unlike malaria, Aedes-borne viruses attract little funding.
What鈥檚 needed: An all-society, bottom-up approach to guide malaria and dengue control efforts, led by a new generation of public health field entomologists grounded in new technologies as well as ecology, biology, and community engagement.  GOOD READS FOR AUGUST Tips from GHN Readers      Ahead of GHN鈥檚 August break, we asked GHN readers for summer reading recommendations.
