Another Ugandan health crisis

October 24, 2012

Last week, UCU lost a staff member.  We thought he had died of typhoid; it turns out that he had the Marburg virus, a virus in the same class as Ebola.  Several of his other family members have died as well.

The staff member was not near UCU when he both contracted the virus and died [meaning that we are safe hear; Kabale is far to the west], though the outbreak of the Marburg virus is growing.  

Lord, in Your mercy… please pray.
