エボラ流行：ウガンダでは三地区を閉鎖

BBC People with Ebola symptoms should not self-medicate - doctor 27 Oct 2022

「Since the outbreak began in September, Uganda's health ministry has recorded 109 cases and 30 deaths.」

　とまあ、最近のお話だと109症例30名死亡。
　2週間ほど前の話だと、58症例19名死亡。まあ確実じゃないけどな！という状況。確認症例だけでこのレベル、この増加数。地味な増加を地方でし続けている可能性は捨てきれない。

BBC Ebola in Uganda: Three-week lockdown announced for two districts 16 Oct 2022 By Patience Atuhaire & Elsa Maishman

「A three-week lockdown has been declared in two districts of Uganda as the country battles an Ebola outbreak.

Bars, nightclubs, places of worship and entertainment venues will be closed in Mubende and neighbouring Kassanda, and a curfew will come into force.」

「This latest outbreak has killed 19 people among 58 recorded cases.」

「However, the real number of deaths and cases may be higher.」

　注意すべき点としては、大統領がtraditional healersに「関与するなよ」という警告を出している点。

「And he has forbidden traditional healers from trying to handle cases. In previous outbreaks, healers have been associated with hotspots for spread of the virus.」

　どうも以前の流行の際、ホットスポットになっちゃったそうで…呪術医がまだ現役であるということを知れると同時に、いやこれ統治、大変だよなあと思わざるを得ないなど。
