Uganda declares Ebola outbreak over
Uganda officially announced the eradication of the Ebola outbreak after the last patient recovered on June 14, following a 42-day monitoring period. The Ugandan Minister of Health confirmed that the country's success in controlling the disease was based on the government's ongoing investments in building resilient public health systems, while cautioning that the virus still poses a threat to the region. Uganda is closely monitoring its borders with the Democratic Republic of Congo, which continues to record rising cases. This development is a significant step in efforts to combat the disease, as the DRC has reported over 3,075 confirmed cases, according to global health reports.
