Office of the Spokesperson United States Responds to Ebola Outbreak in AfricaMedia Note May 18, 2026 The Department of State is coordinating a comprehensive response to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Uganda. By working to contain the outbreak before it reaches American shores, the United States is protecting the health of Americans at home and abroad. On May 15, 2026, within 24 hours of learning of the confirmed cases, the Department leveraged its outbreak response and humanitarian assistance capabilities to establish an interagency coordination cell and incident management system in Washington, D.C. Embassies in the DRC, Rwanda, South Sudan, and Uganda have joined this group and established monitoring groups to track developments and communicate with American citizens in the region. The Department is convening a daily leadership-level meeting to ensure the response remains a top priority. Our first goal has been to ensure the safety of Americans abroad and the protection of the American homeland. The Department’s coordination cell worked closely to update the Department’s travel advisories to reflect circumstances on the ground and provide American citizens with travel risk information and guidance. The Department also worked closely with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on issuing the May 18, 2026 Title 42 order prohibiting travel to the United States for foreign nationals who have visited the DRC, Uganda, and South Sudan within the last 21 days. The Department of State is also working with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on implementing this order and any future CDC quarantine and isolation guidance world-wide. We are also working closely with CDC and the U.S. military on potential repatriation of affected Americans, based on assessed exposure and health needs. Within 48 hours, the Department activated a response plan and mobilized an initial $13 million in foreign assistance for immediate response efforts. This funding bolsters each country’s own response, supporting surveillance, laboratory capacity, risk communication, safe burials, entry and exit screening, and clinical case management. The Department is preparing to announce additional bilateral funding for both outbreak response and humanitarian assistance, as it continues to gain additional information on the scope of the outbreak. This additional funding builds on U.S. investments in disease surveillance and outbreak detection, and response efforts made through bilateral health MOUs signed with both the DRC and Uganda under the America First Global Health Strategy. In addition, we are leveraging the Department’s historic investment in OCHA pooled funds for the DRC and Uganda to ensure the rapid deployment of additional humanitarian assistance on the ground and close coordination with the UN system. Department leadership has spoken with UN Secretariat Leadership and local Humanitarian/Resident coordinators for affected countries. The Department is leading donor coordination efforts in regional capitals, working closely with the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other international partners to ensure a coordinated and effective response. Our May 14 announcement of $1.8 billion in additional funding for OCHA pooled funds includes $250 million in funding for the DRC and Uganda, which the Department is prioritizing for imminent funding actions to properly resource the humanitarian and outbreak response in both countries. American leadership remains indispensable in confronting global health threats. The United States will continue to protect American citizens, support affected communities, and marshal international action to contain this outbreak quickly, decisively, and effectively.

Thomas "Tommy" Pigott, Spokesperson Announcement of Targeted Visa Restrictions for Individuals Involved in Undermining Peace in South SudanPress Statement May 12, 2026 The transitional government of South Sudan has, for years, impeded implementation of the Revitalized Agreement on the Resolution of the Conflict in the Republic of South Sudan (R-ARCSS), signed during President Trump’s first term, leaving the country on the brink of a return to all-out war. Numerous well-respected investigative bodies have documented how corrupt officials and entities, including Crawford Capital, Ltd., have siphoned money from South Sudan’s treasury and stolen foreign assistance funds intended to support the South Sudanese people. The South Sudan People’s Defense Forces (SSPDF), controlled by President Salva Kiir, has conducted a military offensive in northern Jonglei State that has displaced 300,000 people and created the conditions for a potential famine in large parts of South Sudan. There have also been credible reports of human rights violations and abuses and ethnically motivated killings of the Nuer people. Today, pursuant to authority under Section 212(a)(3)(C) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, Secretary Rubio is taking steps to impose visa restrictions on members of South Sudan’s transitional government. These individuals have undermined peace in South Sudan, including by impeding the ceasefire agreement and engaging in corruption that has fueled the conflict. The United States will continue to stand with the South Sudanese people, who want to live in peace and dignity. We will continue to use all tools available to expose and promote accountability for members of the transitional government, SSPDF officials, and other individuals who steal from the South Sudanese people and threaten peace.
