Daily Recap: Health — 25 June 2026

Health and public safety concerns dominate today’s headlines. France has confirmed an Ebola case in a doctor returning from a humanitarian mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo, though officials say the patient is in stable condition and being treated in a specialized facility as authorities trace any potential exposure. In Ireland, Gardaí are urging anyone who may have suffered abuse linked to the Presbyterian Church in Ireland to come forward, widening an investigation that is being coordinated with police in Northern Ireland. Elsewhere, the courts are taking shape around starkly different tragedies: in Lincolnshire, a couple have been charged with murder over the death of an eight-week-old baby, while in Mumbai, police have arrested a man after a young passenger was fatally stabbed on a crowded local train. Even a commercial dispute in Kingston has taken a human toll, with a bridal shop owner suing over leaks she says devastated her business and personal life.
