Epidemic |
Uganda |
The Ministry of Health has confirmed an outbreak of Measles in Kamwenge, Kyenjojo, Mubende and Isingiro districts one year after a countrywide mass measles immunization campaign was undertaken targeting children below 5 years of age in May 2012. This was after the results of blood samples taken from patients in these districts tested positive for the measles virus after laboratory scrutiny at Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI). This outbreak jeopardizes the measles elimination targets for the country hence the need to respond urgently by improving the immunization coverage levels in these districts.
A rapid assessment done by the district and URCS reveals that the disease has affected the sub-counties of Kitanga, Kiganda, Kibalinga, Bageza, & Kiyuni in Mubende district, Buguli sub-county in Kamwenge district, four (4) sub-counties of Nyankwanzi, Butunduzi, Bugaaki & Kyenjojo TC from Kyenjojo district and Mbaare sub-county in Isingiro district.
