According the Luweero District disease surveillance officer, the mourners armed with clubs, sticks and stones accused the special burial team of violating Muslim burial rites by wrapping the dead body in a bag. They insisted on washing the body before burial as part of the Islamic rites.

Emergency Message to U.S. Citizens

U.S. Embassy Kampala, Uganda
Emergency Message to U.S. Citizens
Ebola Outbreak in Uganda
November 16, 2012

This Emergency Message is to alert U.S. citizens residing and traveling in Uganda of an outbreak of Ebola virus. On November 15, 2012, the Ugandan Ministry of Health confirmed 2 cases of Ebola Viral Hemorrhagic Fever in Luwero District. Local media also reported on November 16 that a person in contact with one of the confirmed Ebola cases traveled to the Busoga region. The Ugandan Ministry of Health, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and international partners are investigating these cases to determine the extent of the outbreak and if additional cases are present.

The likelihood of contracting Ebola is considered extremely low unless there has been a direct contact with body fluids like saliva, urine, or blood of an infected person or animal or the body of someone who has died from the disease. Since the virus spreads through direct contact with blood and other body secretions of an infected person, people living with and caring for Ebola patients are at a higher risk of becoming infected.

Over the past few months, the Government of Uganda has announced several different outbreaks of viral hemorrhagic fevers, including current advisories regarding Ebola and Marburg. The Embassy advises all American citizens to be aware of the potential of an outbreak in Uganda and to always follow health guidelines to minimize risk or exposure. To obtain Travel Notices from the CDC, visit the CDC's website at [link to www.cdc.gov] or call the CDC at 1-404-639-3534 if dialing from overseas, or at 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636) if dialing from within the United States.
For specific information on protecting yourself from Ebola viral hemorrhagic fever, the CDC has the following websites, and you are encouraged to read this information:

Ebola deaths at five as 40 are monitored



By Agatha Ayebazibwe, Dan Wandera and Samuel Kaweesa.
Task force mandated to bury Ebola victims looks on in disbelief as mourners grab dead body from them and threaten to lynch the team, insisting they must wash the corpse.

One more person succumbed to the Ebola virus yesterday, bringing the death toll in the latest outbreak of the dreaded haemorrhagic fever in the country to five.
The victim, a 29-year-old woman, died at Bombo Hospital, some 30 kilometres north of Kampala, where she was admitted on Tuesday last week...

..In Luweero, a burial team set up by the District Ebola Task Force to ensure that bodies of those confirmed or suspected to have Ebola are handled and buried by a special team, yesterday narrowly escaping lynching by mourners who snatched a body from the Nakatonya Muslim Cemetery in Bombo Town Council.
According the Luweero District disease surveillance officer, Mr Richard Kawenyera, the mourners armed with clubs, sticks and stones accused the special burial team of violating Muslim burial rites by wrapping the dead body in a bag. They insisted on washing the body before burial as part of the Islamic rites.
“We are worried because we do not know what happened afterwards. The blood sample was taken to the Uganda Virus Research Institute and the results had not been received to confirm whether or not he died of Ebola. If a positive result turns up, these people will have touched the body of an Ebola victim,” Mr Kawenyera said on Saturday... [link to www.monitor.co.ug]

quarantine of persons having been in contact with victims
Five people came into contact with these two people were placed under surveillance, two of them being placed in solitary confinement in a unit of Mulago Hospital in Kampala, according the same source. A third man died late October after showing symptoms resembling those of Ebola, but his case was not reported to authorities and no sample was taken from the corpse, she said.
However, the authority in charge of the Ministry of Health does not remain without dealing with this alarming situation in his country it seeks to locate anyone having been in contact with victims. The seven doctors who took care of the one who came to Mulago and died on the spot, as well as 13 staff health for example, were quarantined she said. President Yoweri Museveni when he is speechless in the face of this new epidemic he calls his compatriots still caution. I urge you to be vigilant, avoid shaking hands, do not charge to bury someone died Ebola-like symptoms but call health workers because they know how to do , said Ugandan President. Avoid overcrowding because the disease can also be transmitted sexually , the President concluded, wishing "good luck" to his fellow . May God grant that the souls of those who died rest in eternal peace , he added... [link to journaldekin.com]

Uganda must again deal with an outbreak of Ebola
| 11/19/2012 at 12:17
A month and a half ago after the last outbreak that has killed 17 people in western countries, the Uganda is again struck by the Ebola virus. The health minister, Christine Ondoa, announced Saturday, November 17, the identification of four cases, including three deaths. This disease caused by a virus results in a sudden rise in temperature, vomiting, diarrhea, kidney and liver failure and bleeding. The mortality rate can reach 90%.
The Ebola virus was first identified in 1976 in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Uganda border. No treatment and no vaccine exists to this day. The DRC is itself a focus of epidemic in the region of Kisangani. The end of October last bulletin of the World Health Organization (WHO) reported 52 cases.
In Uganda, it has deployed personnel, as Doctors Without Borders also to investigate the epidemic alongside the Ugandan Ministry of Health. A special unit of isolation at Mulago Hospital in Kampala, and another Nyimbwa where is the epicenter of the epidemic, were activated to be able to accommodate in terms of security people who approached sick. Five people have been in contact with the deceased were placed under medical supervision.

The Age Of The Super Virus: Why We Should Be Concerned
16/11/2012

As of 12 November, three people - all members of the same family - were suspected to have died from the Ebola virus, a viral hemorrhagic fever, in Luwero District, 50km northwest of Kampala.
Five people who had close contact with the dec..

..The greatest worry the world has right now in medicine is the creation of the Super virus. The swine flu, Marburg and Ebola virus are deadly and the Swine flu virus spreads quickly so now imagine if you mixed both characteristics, high contagious and deadly and you have the super virus. Viruses have the ability to transform and change quickly and moving from specie to specie at will.
A cow could get a virus which is not dangerous in humans and then spread it to its herder inside of whom, if the conditions are right, it can mutate into a strain that is particularly dangerous to human beings.
The Marburg and Ebola viruses are examples of this inter species transmission from monkey to human.
Furthermore there’s the worry of drug resistance. It’s ironic because the very medicine’s that are supposed to help us will in the long run create stronger, more drug resistant strains of viruses due to their ability to evolve.
The greatest danger lies in the fact that health care sectors are woefully unprepared. Health care in Uganda..

Maybe I'm misunderstanding here, but wouldn't you want travel and trade restrictions when there's an ebola outbreak?

One would think!

coming to Kampala by air, you will actually arrive in the city of Entebbe, 35km (22mi) southwest of Kampala

Uganda: Fresh Ebola outbreak raises fears virus is nearing Kampala
Six people have died, as a fresh outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus was reported in another Ugandan district, raising fears that the disease could soon hit Kampala, the country's capital.

This is the first time the disease has been reported near Kampala, triggering panic in the city.
As if to mitigate the virus, Kampala citizens have stopped shaking each other's hand while greeting and most people now fear attending public gatherings.
The health ministry confirmed the deaths, in one week, of the six in Luwero District, 25 kilometres from Kampala.
Ironically, the latest outbreak comes barely a month after the World Health Organisation declared Uganda Ebola free.
This was after the eradication of the disease in in Kibale District about 350 kilometres from Kampala, which killed more than 20 people.
..
"Now that the disease is near Kampala, we are scared that it might soon infect people in slum areas. Once it reaches the slums, it will be difficult to contain."
