Ugandan leader says anti-Ebola efforts starting to succeed,"So I want to congratulate Kagadi and Bunyangabo." Overall cases were falling, but some infected people were still slipping through a quarantine imposed on Mubende and Kasanda districts - the epicentre of the outbreak in central Uganda - and travelling to other regions and exporting cases there, Museveni said. On Sunday, health minister Jane Ruth Aceng said an Ebola case had been confirmed in Jinja in the country's east, the first time the outbreak had spread to a new region of the country from central Uganda where cases have been confined so far.
