Waziri wa Afya Ummy Mwalimu amekiri kupokea taarifa za kifo cha Dkt. Mohamed Ali aliyefariki nchini Uganda baada ya kupata maambukizi ya Virusi vya Ebola Septemba 26, 2022.
Waziri wa Afya nchini Uganda, Dkt. Jane Ruth aliripoti pia kifo cha Dkt. Mohammed Ali kupitia Twitter. Mohamed amefariki akiwa na miaka 37 na alikuwa akipata matibabu katika Hospitali ya Fort Portal RRH, ambako aliwekwa karantini.
===========================
Ebola has claimed the life of the first doctor - a Tanzanian - who was studying in Uganda.
Uganda's Health Minister, Dr Jane Ruth Ocero, made the announcement on Saturday via Twitter.
She wrote, "I regret to announce that we have lost our first doctor, Dr Mohammed Ali, a Tanzanian National."
Ali was 37 years old.
He died at 3.15am.
He tested positive for Ebola on Sept 26, 2022 and died while receiving treatment at Fort Portal RRH, Isolation facility ( JMedic) in Uganda.
He’s the first doctor and second health worker to succumb. The first was a midwife from St. Florence Clinic, a probable case because she died before testing, Ocero said.
Ali had been pursuing a Masters in Medicine in Surgery course at Kampala International University.
The death toll from the Ebola outbreak in Uganda has now risen to eight.
President Yoweri Museveni ruled out a lockdown to contain the highly contagious virus.
Ebola is an often-fatal viral haemorrhagic fever named after a river in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) where it was discovered in 1976.
Human transmission is through body fluids, with the main symptoms being fever, vomiting, bleeding and diarrhoea.
