Ebola outbreak in Uganda
In the past month, at least 64 people in Uganda have been — or are suspected of being — infected with a rare species of Ebola virus, for which no vaccines or treatments are available. About 30 people have died. The rapid rise and spread of the lethal virus across five districts in Uganda have alarmed scientists, and raised fears that the outbreak will not be easy to contain. But Ebola is not new to Uganda, and health officials are putting lessons from previous outbreaks into practice — for example, a mobile laboratory in Mubende, the outbreak’s epicentre, is speeding up testing and detection.
