Ebola Virus History: First Picture Taken at CDC in 1976 | Time

In the last 24 hours, Uganda has recorded four confirmed cases of Ebola, bringing the cumulative number of confirmed cases to 11, the country’s health ministry reported Friday in a statement.

The Ugandan Health Ministry considers a “probable case” as any person who died from suspected EVD (ebola) and had an epidemiological link to a confirmed case but was not tested and did not have lab confirmation. The ministry considers “confirmed cases” for those with positive lab results.

Around 25 patients are being admitted at a health facility in the East African country’s Mubende district where the Ebola outbreak was detected, the ministry said, while also stating that six of the cases had been confirmed to be infected while 19 were suspected of having the virus.
