During an official visit to Uganda on Monday, World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus commended the East African nation for its aggressive work containing an Ebola outbreak that originated in neighboring Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The outbreak, which the WHO has already classified as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), emerged in northeastern DRC’s Ituri province on May 15, and has since been linked to 515 confirmed infections and 91 deaths across the border. To date, Uganda has documented 19 cases and two deaths, the vast majority of which involve Congolese nationals who crossed into Ugandan territory after exposure.
