Congo (DRC): Strategic Destabilization and the Shadow of Biological Warfare (Ebola)
Full video: https://open.substack.com/pub/refugedepot/p/the-next-pandemic?r=5zctaa&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is frequently described as one of the world's most resource-rich nations, holding an estimated $24 trillion in untapped mineral deposits, including vast reserves of cobalt, coltan, and gold. These resources are essential for the global transition to green energy and the production of modern electronics, leading to intense competition between global powers such as China and the United States. The strategic necessity of these minerals has created a "war economy" where instability is often incentivized by external actors to ensure low-cost access to commodities and to bypass the complexities of dealing with a stable, sovereign government.

Some analysts argue that the persistent state of crisis in the DRC—ranging from armed conflict to recurring public health emergencies like Ebola—serves to maintain a power vacuum that prevents the consolidation of a strong, independent state capable of controlling its own wealth. While Ebola outbreaks are biological realities, the inability of the Congolese state to manage these crises effectively is often cited as evidence of systemic institutional decay, which some observers suggest is a byproduct of, or a tool for, continued foreign influence. By keeping the nation in a state of perpetual fragility, external interests can maintain "plausible deniability" while securing supply chains that are vital to their own economic and technological dominance.

The Next Pandemic: What You Need to Know

When we talk about major pandemic threats, it’s important to distinguish between diseases that cause severe illness and those that have the potential to spread rapidly across the globe. Experts use a few key criteria to determine which pathogens pose the greatest risk: the ability to transmit from person-to-person efficiently, the severity of the disease, and the lack of existing medical countermeasures like vaccines or treatments.

Based on current outbreaks and public health assessments, here is a breakdown of major threats, ranging from agents causing ongoing outbreaks to those with future pandemic potential.

⚡️ Current High-Consequence Outbreaks

These viruses are causing outbreaks right now that require active international monitoring due to their severity and spread.

| Pathogen/Disease | Pandemic Potential & Status | Transmission & Key Facts |

| Ebola (Bundibugyo Virus) | High-consequence outbreak. A Public Health Emergency of International Concern was declared in May 2026 due to cases spreading from DRC to Uganda . | Low airborne risk. Spreads through direct contact with infected bodily fluids. No licensed vaccine is available for this specific strain, and the fatality rate is 30-50% . |

| Andes Virus (Hantavirus) | Unlikely to cause a pandemic. It gained attention due to a rare outbreak on a cruise ship in May 2026, but experts say it is not a major threat . | Limited person-to-person spread. This is the only hantavirus known to spread between humans, but it requires prolonged, close contact and is not easily transmitted like the flu or COVID-19 . |

Facing the Heat: Preparing for Climate Extremes and Food Security

As we gather on this meaningful Liberation Day at Liberation Park, we also face a growing challenge—one that demands our attention, unity, and action. This talk will explore the rising threat of extreme heatwaves and the increasing risk of food insecurity in our communities.

We’ll look at how climate change is reshaping our environment, what it means for public health and local food systems, and—most importantly—how we can prepare. From cooling strategies and community support networks to urban gardening and policy advocacy, this session will offer practical steps individuals and neighborhoods can take to build resilience.

Let’s honor the spirit of liberation by empowering ourselves and each other to meet the future with courage, care, and collective strength.

Have you seen the price of flour lately?

Here’s how I store unbleached flour for long-term storage:

âś… Freeze overnight (or longer) âś… Return to room temperature âś… Fill Mylar bag âś… Add oxygen absorber âś… Seal with hair straightener âś… Label and date

Store what you eat. Eat what you store.

Minister Farrakhan further emphasized this reality during his February 27, 2011 “God Will Send Saviours” address, reminding the world of the specific weapons outlined by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad: rain, hail, snow, and earthquakes.

“The forces of nature are great weapons as we see them in play upon America,” Minister Farrakhan stated, posing a rhetorical question that cuts to the very core of human humility: “What can you do with a God like that?” https://open.substack.com/pub/refugedepot/p/may-madness-weather-extremes-and?r=5zctaa&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

In Fall of America by the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, Chapter 37 titled America's Land being Divinely Curtailed, he writes, Holy Qur’an, Ch. 13:41, "See they not that We are visiting the land, curtailing it of its sides? And Allah pronounces a doom, there is no repeller of His decree. And He is swift in calling to account." https://open.substack.com/pub/refugedepot/p/may-madness-weather-extremes-and?r=5zctaa&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
