Reuters reports the CDC has activated $107 million in emergency funding to respond to the Ebola outbreak in the DRC and Uganda, now over 875 cases and 202 deaths.

With the World Cup underway, CDC's preparedness team is holding calls twice a week with health officials in all 11 U.S. host cities, covering Ebola, measles, and heat-related illness.
This is exactly the kind of coordination Surveillance IQ exists to support: giving host cities a shared, real-time picture backed by data, not just updates.

The World Cup is here. So are we.

The question Politico is asking, "How do you stop Ebola at the World Cup?", is exactly why we built Surveillance IQ.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is bringing millions of visitors to North America amid a measles surge and an active Ebola outbreak in Africa. Public health departments are trying to use a COVID-era playbook without pandemic-era funding.

This is exactly the gap Apiary Labs is helping host cities close.

Through wastewater surveillance, point-of-care outbreak alerts, and gap analysis, Surveillance IQ is being deployed in World Cup host cities so officials can detect threats before they become headlines.

The World Cup is here. So are we. 🌍🏆

Apiary Labs is proud to announce our partnership with world cup host cities and states ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

We are deploying Surveillance IQ, our pathogen tracing tool, to monitor and detect potential public health threats as travel into the US surges this summer. Through point-of-care outbreak alerts, wastewater detection, and gap analysis, we'll be helping officials stay ahead of what's coming before it becomes a problem.

Major global events bring the world together, and with that comes complexity that public health systems need to be ready for. We're honored that various emergency response teams are trusting Apiary Labs to be part of that preparation.

The World Cup is coming. We'll be watching. 🌍🏆

This is an exciting time at Apiary Labs.

One year ago, almost to the day, we had our very first conversation about what would become Apiary Labs.
The conversation was about caring for a parent with a chronic illness, and the complexities that go along with that: appointments, medications, and specialists all stacked on top of an already full life. Tracking everything with no real system was hard, and that constant worry that something might slip through the cracks.

The more we talked, the more we realized this isn't just our story. Anyone navigating a loved one's care, or even just trying to manage their own health has experienced this. The US healthcare system places an enormous burden on families, with very few tools to help carry it.

So we set out to build one.

We are Apiary Labs, and after a year of hard work, we are starting to roll out solutions for the problems we uncovered during our discovery process. Much like a hive working toward a single purpose, we're here to bring clarity and coordination to something that matters deeply: your family's health.

We can't wait to share what's coming. Stay tuned!. 🐝

We've been heads down building something bigger, and that starts with a new name. Vera is now Afya.

Afya means health in Swahili, and it reflects exactly where we're headed: a deeper, more holistic approach to helping patients, families, and care teams navigate complex care and benefits together.

Same mission. Stronger foundation. A lot of exciting things ahead.

Stay tuned, because we're just getting started.

Care often breaks after discharge.

That’s why Vera starts here: helping families understand next steps, manage changes, and prepare for what comes next.

MVP coming soon!

130 million people managing chronic conditions.
63 million caregivers supporting loved ones.
25 million Family Health Navigators coordinating complex care at home.

These families shape outcomes every day, from readmissions to recovery, yet most tools were never designed for their reality.

Apiary Labs is building the infrastructure to support them.
Starting with Vera.

01/09/2026

Behind every complex care journey is someone coordinating it all:
appointments, medications, specialists, benefits, home logistics.

They are Family Health Navigators — an informal extension of the health system, operating without infrastructure designed for their reality.

We’re building for them.
And for the systems that rely on their work every day.

Healthcare doesn’t usually fail because of a lack of information.
It fails because the information is fragmented, overwhelming, and arrives at the wrong moment.

✔️ Especially at home.
✔️ Especially after discharge.
✔️ Especially for people managing multiple conditions.

Apiary Labs is building the intelligence layer for complex care at home, where clarity matters most!

01/02/2026

Imagine a world where:
✨ Healthcare information is clear
✨ Decisions feel confident
✨ Families understand what’s happening
✨ Nothing falls through the cracks
This is the future we're building. one where clarity replaces confusion and families finally feel supported.

More soon.
