The Minister of Health has reported one imported case of the Ebola virus in Uganda - a Congolese man who sought medical treatment in a hospital in Kampala, who is now deceased. His body was returned the same evening to the DRC. The World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are fully mobilized in Uganda and working alongside local officials. The country has a history of efficiently and effectively managing tropical disease outbreaks.
