WHO: Uganda Faces Ebola Risk Despite Ends
The World Health Organization has reported that Uganda remains at risk of Ebola virus spread from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, despite the recovery of the last local patient on June 16 and 42 days passing without new cases. The 42-day period, which is twice the known incubation period of 21 days, is an international standard for monitoring the potential continuation of transmission. The model will continue to monitor the situation for 42 days as a precautionary measure to ensure no new cases emerge.
