On Monday, the Ministry of Health announced that it was intensifying surveillance and preparedness against a possible Ebola outbreak in the country. This comes as neighboring countries, including the Democratic Republic of Congo, continue to battle the deadly virus. The Ministry of Health has taken measures to prevent the spread of the disease, including training health workers on how to handle Ebola patients. The government has also set up screening centers at all entry points, including airports and border crossings. Additionally, the Ministry of Health has established an incident management system to quickly respond to any suspected cases of Ebola. The government is working closely with international partners, including the World Health Organization (WHO), to ensure that Uganda is prepared to handle any potential cases.
