WHO Chief visits Uganda over Ebola
The Director-General of the World Health Organization announced that there are 19 confirmed cases and two deaths in Uganda due to an Ebola outbreak, which is transmitted through contact and bodily fluids. This follows a larger outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where over 515 cases and 91 deaths have been reported since May. Although the situation in Uganda is currently safer, the organization considers the risk of spread to be high at the regional level. There is currently no available vaccine or effective treatment for this strain of the virus.
