Many steps, one shared reality, HIV Prevention.

Your journey is unique, but your protection shouldn't be an afterthought. Multiple partners = higher HIV risk.

Protect yourself.
Every second counts.
Let’s act now.

Intimacy requires trust, respect, and safety. A single choice can change the entire dynamic of a moment. Protecting yourself and your partner from HIV is always the right move. Use a condom correctly and consistently.

@AfricaCDC - we are tired of this malicious framing of what’s going on with Ebola.

You know better than this. The government of Uganda has been cooperating with you fully and considers you a partner.

That’s why this tweet is polite.

Do the right thing.

[National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board @lgrb_uganda]

@aidscommission is currently conducting an induction for @lgrb_uganda HIV/AIDS Committee.

As part of the session, our team is receiving training on the development of the National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board Workplace HIV/AIDS & TB Policy, a key step in promoting prevention, awareness, care, support and healthier work environment.

"HIV mainstreaming in Uganda is critical because HIV is a cross-cutting threat to the nation's socio-economic development," Charles Otai, Principal Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, Uganda AIDS Commission.

We are confident that such engagements will strengthen a healthy and productive environment for our staff and stakeholders.

'We saw Ebola patients trying to push though to come into our country'
Uganda Permanent Secretary for Health Dr Diana Atwine tells Focus On Africa's Waihiga Mwaura that her country closed the borders with the DRC to try and contain the current Ebola outbreak.

[Uganda AIDS Commission @aidscommission]

Permanent Secretary, Dr. Diana Atwine updates the media on the current Ebola status in the country.

*Uganda has not recorded any new confirmed case of EVD since Monday 25th May 2026.* However, the total number of contacts to the confirmed cases have increased. Most of these contacts are health workers.

*The total number of cases stand at seven (7) with one death.*

Following the escalating Ebola outbreak in the DRC and increased cross-border movement risks, the National Task Force on Ebola Response has announced the following immediate measures:
• Uganda has temporarily closed its border with the DRC. Only authorized Ebola response teams, humanitarian operations, food/cargo transport, and essential security personnel will be allowed entry under strict health screening protocols.
• All authorized travelers from the DRC will undergo mandatory health screening, documentation, locator form completion, and continuous monitoring at entry points.
• Anyone returning from the DRC into Uganda must undergo 21 days of mandatory self-isolation under Ministry of Health supervision.
• Schools in border districts will remain open but must strictly follow MOH Ebola SOPs. Learners returning from the DRC must have daily temperature monitoring for 21 days.
• RDCs/RCCs are directed to enforce all Ebola prevention and control guidelines.
• Media houses are required to dedicate daily prime-time programming to Ebola awareness, prevention, and reporting.
Let us remain vigilant and continue observing all Ministry of Health guidance.
