The Ebola crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo has taken a turn for the worse, with over 220 suspected deaths reported since the start of the outbreak. As Uganda watches the situation unfold, aid workers are preparing for a potential uptick in cases, but foreign aid cuts are hampering their efforts. On Sunday, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that five patients in Africa's Ebola outbreak have recovered, but the crisis is far from over. With the WHO chief visiting the epicenter of the outbreak, the focus is on expanding response efforts to contain the spread of the disease. Uganda's health authorities are on high alert, but the aid cuts have reduced their capacity to respond effectively. As the situation continues to deteriorate, Uganda's government and health workers are bracing for the worst, while calling for increased international support to combat the crisis.
