[Ministry of Health- Uganda @MinofHealthUG]

This morning, @WHO Director General, @DrTedros held a meeting with the Ministry of Health senior technical team led by Permanent Secretary, @DianaAtwine and Director General Health Services, @olaro_charles to understand the #Ebola situation in the country.

Dr. Tedros appreciated the commitment from the Government of Uganda in responding to Ebola, “You have the experience and you can do it” he added. He called for Uganda to support DRC in responding to this outbreak.

The Permanent Secretary, @DianaAtwine noted that Uganda is supporting the outbreak in DRC by deploying health workers and setting up 50 bed treatment units, this week. She added that two mobile laboratories have already been set up in Bwera and Arua to support DRC testing and diagnostics.

Current Ebola update as of 5 June 2026

Four patients have successfully recovered and been discharged.

The 3 new cases were contacts to confirmed cases who have been in institutional quarantine by the Ministry of Health.

Unfortunately, one person, a Congolese national passed on. May her soul rest in eternal peace.

The country remains safe and open for all.

The VC @ProfNawangwe has at the official launch of the National Project to enhance the detection and monitoring of Antimicrobial Resistance (NIAMR) presided over by Dr. @DianaAtwine today, reaffirmed Makerere’s strong commitment to research and innovation. Nearly half of @RIFMakerere funding is dedicated to health-related research — a clear reflection of @GovUganda’s strategic investment in university-led solutions to national challenges.

Prof. Nawangwe praised the collaboration with @MbararaUST and commended Prof. Josephine Nabukenya and the NIAMR team for leveraging digital technologies and AI to strengthen national AMR surveillance and management. He expressed confidence that the project will generate vital evidence to inform policy and decision-making.

@Mildred_Pedun Happy birthday dear

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

Healthcare workers are the lifeblood of every health system. This has once again been underscored in the response to the #Ebola disease outbreak caused by the Bundibugyo virus in eastern #DRC.

On the frontlines of the outbreak, health workers are also among those most exposed to the risk of infection as they care for patients affected by Ebola.

In Bunia, the capital of Ituri Province, I had the honour of meeting four dedicated nurses who were infected while serving their communities. Because they presented early, they received close care and symptomatic treatment over two to three weeks, and have now tested negative for the virus.

I was deeply moved to meet them and to help present their certificates as Ebola survivors.

What inspired me most was their commitment to returning to work and continuing to provide care during this extremely challenging time. Their courage and dedication remind us why health workers are so vital, and why they must be supported, protected, and valued at all times.
