Live delta +6.8 versus structural baseline

  • FEWS national phase 3 (Crisis) as of 2026-07
  • Brent +16.3% moved fuel stress +1.6
  • Disease pressure +4.8 (Ebola, Polio, Meningococcal). WHO outweighs a CDC-only notice
  • Yield stress rose with rainfall or a drought report. This is not a live NDVI download
  • Displacement signals raised modelled outflow pressure
