Why It Is Likely That Ebola Will Hit Uganda Very Soon

Fort Detrick researchers from America, taking a blood sample of an Ebola survivor in Uganda

Inside information reveals that very soon Uganda will experience Ebola from Congo, through opposition armed forces and because of the vaccine trials taking place in Congo, it's necessary to alert the Ugandan Government, to avoid the Ugandans being used as guinea pigs.

Fort Detrick researchers from America, takingRecently Ebola virus disease (EVD) is reported in Mangina, North Kivu Province in the northeast of the country, close to the border with Uganda.

This is the 10th outbreak of Ebola virus disease in the country over the past four decades, with the most recent one occurring between May and June 2018, in Mbandaka and Bikoro health zone, Équateur Province but now opposite in the North Eastern part of the DRC.

This new deadly outbreak of Ebola in DRC has spread outside the province of North Kivu, the country’s health ministry said, entering for the first time an active conflict zone and raising the threat of a wider outbreak.

Complicating response efforts is the location of the latest outbreak: the epicenter of a war zone, where dozens of rebel groups have been fighting for decades over ethnic conflicts and the region’s mineral wealth.

The province is also close to the Ugandan and Rwandan borders, a major regional trade center for a range of commodities including mineral exports such as tin, tantalum, and gold out of eastern Congo. This reminds us of many other conflicts including the first and second world wars in which dangerous microorganisms were applied to humans and livestock.

Uganda has sent a team of 20 doctors to its border districts with the Democratic Republic of Congo after Ebola resurfaced in the Congo eastern region.

According to the Health Minister Dr. Ruth Aceng, the epidemiologists will monitor the situation and screen travellers in order to prevent the spread of the deadly disease in Uganda.

“Since the outbreak was announced, we have had intense discussions with our counterparts in DRC and we have now deployed twenty epidemiologists in Kasese and five other neighbouring districts,” said Dr. Aceng.

She said the doctors will remain there until the outbreak is declared over.

Trojan Horse
The European Union Civil Protection Mechanism is activated, following a request for assistance received from the World Health Organization.

The main strategic activities for the prevention and control of this EVD outbreak included coordination of the response, enhanced epidemiological surveillance for early case detection and contact tracing, increased laboratory capacity, appropriate case management, reinforcement of infection prevention and control, ensuring safe and dignified burials, social mobilization and community engagement.

But it is a utopia to think this is all meant to help Africa because all these measurements are meant to prevent an Ebola to Europe.

The European Union will state; implying these measurements was impossible because of armed groups fighting in the outbreak region in North Eastern Congo. But in meanwhile they are aware of all medical experiments and vaccine trials in this region as well as is confirmed by the Bugandan Government.

After the Ebola outbreak in cities like Mbandaka, a busy port city with more than one million inhabitants on the Congo River, there are also 42 patients in the Bikoro region with symptoms that indicate Ebola.

After this outbreak official in the Democratic Republic of Congo DRC is declared the country Ebola-free on Wednesday, May 29th, 2018.

The outbreak first detected in April in the northwestern part of the DRC killed 32 people; another 21 people were infected but survived. However, it's been more than five weeks since a new case of the viral disease was identified in the country.

It's almost unbelievable that just a short while after the DRC was declared Ebola-free another outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo occur and is believed to have killed 33 people already so far, the nation's health ministry said.

The latest outbreak was announced one week after Congo's government declared the end of a deadly flare-up in the northwestern part of the country. Local health authorities say they have no evidence that the two outbreaks are connected but ask themselves how this is possible.

Thirteen cases of the hemorrhagic fever have been confirmed, including three deaths, the ministry said in the same statement, adding that suspected cases had been detected in both North Kivu and neighboring Ituri province.

Three cases have been confirmed in Beni, a regional trading hub of several hundred thousand people about 30 km (18 miles) from the center of the outbreak in the town of Mabalako, and some 70 km from the Ugandan border. And now Uganda is on high alert after the Ebola virus outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo killed 33 people.

Uganda on alert
Dr. Henry G. Mwebesa, the Acting Director General Health Services, said in a statement on Monday the ministry of health confirmed the virus in Beni which is close to Uganda’s border post of Mponde in the western district of Kasese.

Mwebesa directed all health officials to enhance their surveillance systems and preparedness. He asked them to have a high index of suspicion for Ebola, urgently report any alerts to Public Health Emergency Operation Centre [PHEOC].

The Democratic Republic of Congo as well as the Ugandan Government has given the green light to an experimental vaccine to combat an ongoing Ebola outbreak, but why in Uganda? There isn't an outbreak in Uganda, is it?

While the vaccine is not licensed, it has shown promising signs in a clinical trial but only in Africa. Ebola vaccine trials in Western Countries came to a halt because of serious side effects.

World Health Organization chief, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, says the raging conflict in North Kivu makes the Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo extremely challenging and presents dangers and difficulties not experienced since the historic 2014-2015 epidemic in West Africa.

WHO Director-General Tedros returned from a visit to Beni and Mangina, the epicenters of the Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. He says he was worried before he went on this mission, but he is more worried now after having observed first-hand the dangers and difficulties posed by the active conflict in North Kivu.

He says more than a hundred armed groups operate in the region. He says there have been 120 violent incidents this year involving killings, kidnappings, rapes and other atrocities.

“That environment is really conducive for Ebola actually to transmit freely because in that area there are places called Red Zones, inaccessible areas because there are many armed groups that operate in that region.

And, these Red Zones could be hiding places for Ebola,” said Tedros. But we all know this is also a wake-up call for western scientists to do their criminal work by inducing all kinds of experiments concerning Ebola trial and error studies.

Tedros is calling on the warring parties for a cessation of hostilities, warning this extremely contagious virus is dangerous for everyone. Despite the many concerns, he says WHO and partners are moving ahead aggressively with the operation to contain this deadly virus.

He says more than 216 health workers and 20 people from the community have been vaccinated against Ebola. He says more vaccinators have been deployed from Guinea to speed this process along, and DRC authorities have given the green light for the use of several experimental Ebola drugs.

Tedros says health workers have begun working on case identification and contact tracing, as well as community outreach and educational programs. He says WHO is working with countries neighboring DRC and is helping Uganda, Burundi, Rwanda and South Sudan strengthen their surveillance and screening programs to try to prevent the deadly Ebola virus from crossing their borders.

The only thing we can do is waiting for the biggest Ebola explosion ever.
