She says seven of the new cases are family members from Masanafu and a health worker who managed them in a private clinic together with his wife from Seguku.

The minister is now appealing to Ugandans to remain vigilant and cooperate with the government and report themselves if they have had contact or know of a person who has had Ebola contact.

As of October 22, Uganda has at least 75 confirmed Ebola cases with 28 confirmed deaths since the outbreak was announced in September this year.

Figures from the ministry show that Mulago isolation facility had 60 individuals who had tested positive for Ebola.
