Symptoms often begin suddenly and may include fever, extreme fatigue, diarrhoea, vomiting, chest pain, red eyes, and unexplained bleeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite growing public anxiety, the Ministry of Health reassured Ugandans that the country remains well equipped and experienced in handling Ebola outbreaks, citing Uganda\u2019s previous success in containing similar emergencies through rapid response systems and coordinated public health interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Officials said specialised treatment units remain operational, health workers have been trained in infection prevention protocols, and community sensitisation campaigns are already underway to increase public awareness and vigilance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Public health experts, however, warned that infections among health workers serve as a critical reminder of the ongoing risks facing frontline medical personnel and the urgent need for strict infection prevention and control measures across all health facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The government also appealed to citizens to remain calm, avoid spreading misinformation, and cooperate fully with health authorities by reporting suspected cases promptly and adhering to all public health guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As response teams race to contain the situation, authorities expressed confidence that Uganda\u2019s established outbreak management systems and regional coordination mechanisms will help prevent wider transmission and bring the outbreak under control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Diana N.Kintu Fresh concern has gripped Uganda\u2019s health sector after the Ministry of Health Uganda confirmed two new cases of Ebola Virus Disease, raising the country\u2019s total number of infections to seven and triggering intensified surveillance and contact-tracing operations in Kampala.
