Reporting for Radio Ankole 99.3 FM Ntungamo, we bring you an urgent update regarding the latest remarks from President Yoweri Museveni concerning the current public health situation. In a recent statement broadcast via UBC TV Uganda, the President has explicitly called for a collective national effort to effectively address and contain the ongoing Ebola outbreak. President Museveni emphasized that while the situation requires attention, Ebola should be viewed as a relatively simple disease to manage, especially when contrasted with the complexities and challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Reflecting on his own personal experience, the President noted that he had previously contracted COVID-19, using that comparison to highlight the distinct nature of the current viral threat and the necessity for a focused, strategic response to ensure the safety of all Ugandans.
