I am in #Uganda, where the government has mounted a prompt and capable response to the outbreak of #Ebola.
Screening at the borders helped detect cases arriving from neighbouring #DRC, and the country’s surveillance, testing and case management systems are doing steady work. Of the 19 confirmed cases so far, 14 were among people who entered from DRC and five are Ugandan nationals. Sadly, two people from DRC have died, and our thoughts are with their families.
@WHO is supporting Uganda, alongside @AfricaCDC and partners across the region, as the country leads this response.
With continued collaboration, I am confident this outbreak can be brought under control.
🇺🇬 Uganda Ebola Outbreak Update | As of May 30
Uganda’s Ebola response continues, with national teams and partners working to detect cases early, follow contacts, protect health workers and stop further transmission.
Every contact followed, every sample tested, and every frontline worker protected brings the response closer to interrupting transmission.
Africa CDC continues to support the Government of Uganda (@GovUganda), its @MinofHealthUG, and partners through surveillance, contact tracing, laboratory testing, case management and community engagement.
We are sharing Uganda-specific figures to provide clear, country-by-country information across affected countries. #AfricaResponds

Maintenance of solar systems is a critical component of their functionality&longevity.
We're carrying out the first of bi-annual maintenance visits to the 26 health centers installations done last year.
Common issues are dusty panels,inverters,loose wires &tampered connections
For decades, dependence on fossil fuels meant dependence on volatility. In past oil shocks, countries had little choice but to absorb the pain.
Now they have an exit ramp: Homegrown renewable energy has never been cheaper, more accessible, or more scalable.
The resources of the clean energy era cannot be blockaded or weaponized. There are no price spikes for sunlight & no embargoes on the wind.
The fastest path to energy security, economic & national security is clear:
Speed up a just transition away from fossil fuels & toward renewable energy.
