Uganda's Ministry of Health has reported another 11 suspected cases of the deadly disease Ebola in the country's Mubende district. One death of a one-year old child in the country was probably caused by Ebola, the Ministry says. All suspected cases of Ebola are currently in isolation and being tested. So far only one case has been confirmed. The World Health Organization (WHO), confirmed the outbreak of Ebola in Uganda on Tuesday, after a case of the Sudan strain was found. A 24-year old man caught the disease.

The Ebola Virus is a very deadly virus, which causes the Ebola fever. In the last years Uganda received four outbreaks of the virus, the worst in 2000.
