Summary:

The outlook has become more challenging in recent months. While COVID-19 infections declined significantly, an outbreak of Ebola has raised new public health concerns. Moreover, the economic outlook has been negatively affected by the spillovers from the war in Ukraine and the tightening of global financial conditions. The authorities have reacted to the shocks in an appropriate manner, including through support to vulnerable households, and monetary policy tightening to contain inflation.
