LONG SHADOW: The outbreak, this year, of the Ebola virus in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo involved a combination of factors that made it particularly difficult to contain. It involved the rare Bundibugyo strain, which has no approved vaccine. The number of confirmed cases rose rapidly, along with the death toll. It also occurred at a time when health funding and aid from international agencies had been reduced. All these factors have hindered containment efforts and underline how decisions taken in one part of the world can cast a long shadow elsewhere.

PROCUREMENT & LOCALISATION: South Africa has, for years, had an official policy of using public procurement to bolster local industry. Implementing that policy has not been straightforward, either commercially or legally, however. Given ongoing deindustrialisation, calls for a more strategic approach to localisation are intensifying. Regulations accompanying the Public Procurement Act, which have been out for comment in recent months, are meant to offer something of a solution, but it is far from certain that they will.
