What is the current status of the Ebola outbreak in Uganda?

The Ebola outbreak in Uganda currently stands at about nine cases and was first announced a couple of weeks ago. According to Dr. Craig Spencer, the situation appears to be under control at the moment, largely due to the efforts of the Ugandan Ministry of Health and their capable staff. The World Health Organization has also played a crucial role by stepping up and handling many responsibilities that would typically be managed by United States agencies. Their combined response has helped contain the outbreak despite challenges created by foreign aid freezes that have affected support systems like contact tracing and border screenings.
