A US citizen doing humanitarian work in the Democratic Republic of Congo has tested positive for Ebola, marking the second American infected amid the DRC’s explosive Ebola outbreak—and the second to be sent for care in Germany rather than the US. The Ebola outbreak, which was first declared on May 15, is already the third largest on record and still growing.

Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesJapanese government bond yields have been hitting multi-decade highs, with benchmark 10-year reaching levels not seen since 1996 last week.

A parasitic infection called cyclospora, often transmitted through contaminated food or water, is spreading across the U.S.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports at least 843 cases of the illness — which can cause weeks of watery diarrhea, as a primary symptom — and 86 hospitalizations, as of July 9. The country’s numbers of cases and hospitalizations likely exceed those numbers, as it takes time for the CDC to receive reports from state health departments, which are reporting above-average numbers of cases in places as far-flung as Michigan, New York, Kentucky and Texas.The outbreak has not yet been linked…
Argentina’s YPF Electric Energy reveals revenue jump in US IPO filing Source link
At the end of last September, electric vehicle adoption in the US began to crater. That followed the abolition of the IRS clean vehicle tax credit as part of a series of moves by President Trump and congressional Republicans to undermine energy efficiency and pollution control measures. Until then, buyers of some EVs could claim up to $7,500 from the purchase as part of the IRS Section 30D credit, assuming the EV was below the price cap and the buyer earned less than the income cap. Since then, EV sales have dried up, and automakers have canceled entire product lines…
