Uganda Ebola outbreak ‘rapidly evolving’ after 1 month

(ABC News) Uganda’s Ebola outbreak is “rapidly evolving” a month after the disease was reported in the East African country, a top World Health Organization official said Thursday, describing a difficult situation for health workers on the ground. “The Ministry of Health of Uganda has shown remarkable resilience and effectiveness and (is) constantly fine-tuning a response to what is a challenging situation,” Dr. Matshidiso Moeti, the U.N. health agency’s regional director for Africa, told reporters. “A better understanding of the chains of transmission is helping those on the ground respond more effectively.”
