EQUATORIAL GUINEA — MALARIA ELIMINATION PROGRAMME EXPANDS BEYOND BIOKO Importance: 9/10 — Very High Equatorial Guinea plans to expand a long-running malaria-control programme from Bioko Island to the mainland and Annobon. Bioko reduced malaria prevalence to approximately 7% through spraying, mosquito nets, monitoring and community outreach. A newly announced $116 million investment will support expansion. Authorities are considering R21 vaccination for children and new surveillance tools. Experts warn that larger territory, poverty and cross-border transmission make elimination much harder on the mainland.

EGYPT — BLUE-CHIP SHARES DROP AMID REGIONAL TENSIONS Importance: 8/10 — High Egypt's EGX30 stock index fell 2.6% on Sunday, its steepest intraday decline since February, as Middle East tensions unsettled regional markets.

DR CONGO — EBOLA OUTBREAK COMPOUNDS MENTAL-HEALTH EMERGENCY Importance: 9/10 — Very High Health workers in eastern DR Congo warned that Ebola-related bereavement, stigma and isolation are deepening psychological distress among patients, survivors and medical personnel. A report from Bunia described families affected by multiple deaths and reluctance among neighbours to interact with survivors. Ongoing conflict and displacement compound these pressures. Aid organisations say psychosocial care needs to be integrated with infection control and clinical treatment.

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that the Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche has temporarily suspended all future investment decisions in Germany. Following Boehringer Ingelheim, another company is affected. Roche Germany's CEO Daniel Steiners sharply criticized the federal government and called it a political watershed. According to Boeminghaus, Roche invested around 719 million euros in German locations in 2025 and a total of around 3.8 billion euros since 2020. The company employs 18,594 people in Germany and achieved a revenue of 8.9 billion euros in 2025. In future investments, Germany competes with the USA and China, wrote Boeminghaus. Steiners demanded better local conditions and stated that Europe must try harder again. Boeminghaus described the investment freeze as a warning signal for the industrial location and a bad start to the week for Friedrich Merz. https://t.co/AGLz75iw7Z #Roche #Deutschland #Wirtschaftskrise (translated)

Ms. Hodl wrote that after her 60th birthday she would begin a new chapter and now wants to write books. In 1990/91, she worked as a young biotechnologist in a laboratory in Heidelberg on the fermentation and purification of recombinant hirudin, which was produced with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 36 years later, she is researching the history of those technologies in a scientific library in Heidelberg, which she once worked on herself. She wants to write about molecular biology, the history of biotechnology, research, patents, companies, and the people behind them. In doing so, she brings scientific curiosity, a critical perspective, and her own laboratory experience to the table, she explained. #Biotechnologie #Wissenschaft #Lebensgeschichte (translated)
