Ebola Cases Rise to 15 in Uganda

By Zachery Onyango | Project Leader

Urgent Call to Action: Ebola Cases Rise to 15 in Uganda

Uganda is once again facing a serious public health threat.

Recent reports confirm that Ebola cases have risen to 15, with 6 new cases identified in Kampala. This escalation signals a critical moment—especially as the outbreak reaches urban areas where transmission can spread rapidly and affect thousands.

For many communities, fear and uncertainty are growing. Limited access to accurate information, protective supplies, and timely healthcare increases the risk of further spread. Without immediate intervention, vulnerable populations remain at high risk.

Development Alert is responding on the ground—working to curb the spread of Ebola through community awareness, distribution of hygiene and protective materials, and support for early detection and response efforts.

Current Response Efforts

  • Community sensitization on Ebola prevention and safety
  • Distribution of hygiene supplies and protective materials
  • Support for early reporting and referral systems
  • Engagement with local leaders to strengthen response efforts

Each action taken now can prevent new infections and save lives.

The Urgency Now

With cases rising and spreading into Kampala, the situation is critical. Immediate action is needed to contain the outbreak and protect communities.

Call to Action

We urgently appeal for your support to scale up response efforts.

Your contribution can:

  • Provide essential hygiene and protective supplies
  • Support community awareness and prevention campaigns
  • Enable rapid response to suspected cases
  • Help stop the spread before it escalates further

Time is critical.

Donate now to help us act fast, protect communities, and save lives.
