The Ministry of Health of Uganda and the World Health Organisation have confirmed two more cases of Ebola in the country. It follows the death of a 5-year-old boy who was admitted on Tuesday to Bwera hospital, near the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo. Health Minister Dr Jane Ruth Aceng is in the western district of Kasese, where the cases have been confirmed, and tells us which measures Uganda is taking to contrast the spreading of the virus.
