Live Outbreak Surveillance
Near Kenya.

Publicly reported Bundibugyo virus disease and other haemorrhagic-fever signals across East and Central Africa. The curated layer was revised on 29 October 2026 from WHO, ECDC, CDC, and Kenya Ministry of Health reports.

Data notice: This dashboard maps publicly reported outbreak events — not patient-level case data. WHO and CDC do not publish geocoded patient line lists. Coordinates reflect health-zone or country centroids as appropriate to the precision of the source report. Counts move daily; each marker cites the bulletin it was drawn from. Read the 29 October briefing. Not intended for clinical or emergency response use.

How the Data
is Sourced

Public health surveillance brings together reports that ministries, WHO, and CDC publish separately. No single bulletin is a map.

This dashboard joins WHO Disease Outbreak News with a curated layer into one map. The curated points were revised on 29 October 2026. Locations are towns, health zones, or provinces — never a patient’s address. United Nations humanitarian reports are paused until that source can be read again.

This is precisely the kind of data infrastructure Varona AI builds for government health agencies and global implementers operating in high-stakes environments.

Varona AI is ready to ingest surveillance data directly from regional public health laboratories, hospital networks, and national health information systems. We are equipped to normalize, standardize, and de-identify disparate data sources — including systems that expose data via FHIR R4 APIs — enabling real-time, county-level precision for this dashboard and similar decision-support tools.

What Feeds the Map

WHO Disease Outbreak News LIVE Outbreak notices published by the World Health Organization. The map picks up a notice when WHO issues it.
ReliefWeb PAUSED United Nations reports on humanitarian emergencies. This source is paused. The map is not using it until the reports can be read again.
KEMRI CURATED Kenya Medical Research Institute studies of rodent-borne disease and of people tested in those studies, shown by county rather than by street address.
WHO/CDC Historical Alerts HISTORICAL Older outbreak notices taken from public WHO and CDC reports. Each point is the centre of the health zone named in the report, not a patient’s address.
