An Ebola outbreak has been declared by health officials in Uganda after a confirmed case of Sudan ebolavirus was documented in the Mubende district, located in the central part of the country, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
The case was confirmed by the Uganda Virus Institute after testing a sample taken from a 24-year-old man. Before that, the National Rapid Response team had been recently investigating six suspicious deaths occurring in the same district.
