Together we fight Ebola

We were glad to support Ebola awareness through a radio talk show on Etop Radio and training of health workers in Teso. As Soroti lies along a key travel corridor connecting Uganda to DR Congo and S. Sudan, community education and timely information are critical in prevention

Yesterday I visited Mulago National Referral Hospital in Kampala, where a separate unit has been prepared to treat #Ebola patients. I'm glad for the opportunity to meet with health workers in charge and thank them for their dedication. I am very happy with all the work invested in preparedness and readiness that I have witnessed. I commend the Government of #Uganda for the work being done to control Ebola and provide care for those affected. Uganda’s leadership has been central to the response, and @WHO remains committed to supporting national efforts to stop transmission, save lives and protect communities. Mwebale nnyo.

Thank you for recognizing Uganda’s response to the Ebola outbreak. As the AIC we have supported preparedness efforts by training health workers along the Teso travel corridor connecting to DRC, strengthening surveillance, infection prevention, and community awareness.

Our appreciation to Dr. Michael from the MoH for sharing his expertise during the two-day Ebola readiness training in Soroti. Your guidance has strengthened the capacity of DSFPs, DLFPs, & Hub Coordinators across the Teso subregion to detect and respond to Bundibugyo Virus.
