Uganda health workers get pre-emptory vaccinations against Ebola - UPI
UPI reports: "Vaccinations of front line healthcare workers have begun in Uganda to
stop an outbreak of the Ebola virus, officials said Wednesday. [...]
Officials fear the epidemic will spread from neighboring Democratic
Republic of Congo and are implementing the plan so healthcare workers
don't catch the virus and spread it.
The current Ebola outbreak in DRC is the country's second in 2017. The
last outbreak, contained in July, sickened 53 people and killed 33."
Comment: Wishing them the best of luck in containing this outbreak. Vaccinations work.
