Epidemic |
Uganda |
Uganda's Ministry of Health (MoH) has confirmed an outbreak of Marburg haemorrhagic fever (MHF) in Kitaka
goldmine, located in the Kakasi forest reserve, Kamwenge district, western Uganda. Reports from the Ministry indicate that two cases, with one death, were reported on 14 July 2007. The second case is under treatment and close monitoring. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the disease was confirmed by laboratory diagnosis on 30 July 2007. There is fear of at least 47 suspected cases in Kampala as a result of secondary transmission/contact from the first infected person who traveled to Kampala where he was being treated before his death. There are further fears of the potential spread of the disease in Kayunga district since some gold miners from Kitaka traveled back to their homes in Kayunga. This scenario puts the neighbouring districts of Mbarara, Kabarole and Mukono at high risk. |
