Over the weekend, Uganda saw nine new Ebola cases in the Kampala metropolitan region as of Sunday, as well as two other positive cases on Friday. This is a troubling increase since the outbreak was declared just over a month ago in the Kampala metropolitan area, a remote part of the country. Since September 20th of 2022, there have been 75 cases of Ebola; this includes 28 deaths and 19 active cases. This is a challenging situation for healthcare workers, as the outbreak is "rapidly evolving," according to a World Health Organization official in Africa.
