It’s been a busy week at Devex. Actually, it’s busy every week, but this week was particularly heavy on investigations and exclusives — so we decided to produce a special Saturday edition of Newswire to update you on the critical development news you might’ve missed during your own busy week.
We begin with Senior Reporter Sara Jerving’s bombshell about the myriad accusations swirling around the new head of the African Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Jean Kaseya, and his former employer, the Clinton Health Access Initiative.
Not only has the Congolese doctor taken CHAI to labor court for not renewing his contract, but a series of strange events have also transpired that are raising uncomfortable questions about who Kaseya is, what actually happened, and what’s at stake.
