OUTBREAK ALERT
Ebola is spreading in Uganda.
Today May 23, 2026, three new cases are confirmed: a health worker, a driver, and a cross-border traveler.
Behind these numbers are real people—and a system under pressure.
The World Health Organization warns this outbreak could grow fast, with no vaccine available.
Hundreds of suspected cases and deaths are reported nearby.
Frontline teams are racing to trace contacts, treat patients, and prevent wider spread, but need support.
Your help can protect workers, stop transmission, and deliver urgent care.
Every moment counts.
Act now to support Development Alert’s response and save lives before it escalates further.
