The World Health Organization’s director-general on Monday visited Uganda, where a deadly Ebola outbreak has killed two people out of 19 infections after spreading from the neighbouring Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I am in Uganda, where the government has mounted a prompt and capable response to the outbreak of Ebola,” Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus wrote on X. “Screening at the borders helped detect cases arriving from neighbouring DRC, and the country’s surveillance, testing and case management systems are doing steady work.”
