There Has Been A Renewed Flare-Up, Of Ebola -- In Children -- In Kampala, Uganda. This After An "All Clear", Just Two Weeks Ago. Sigh.

Now, two four year old children -- in Kampala, the capital, have died from confirmed Ebola viral infections [these are unrelated to the male nurse's chain, of January 2025].

This is doubly discouraging, since reliable reports on the ground indicate that United States Ebola aid sources remain frozen -- despite Elon Musk's lying, at a cabinet meeting this week and saying that aid was flowing again, for Ebola prevention, through USAID. The staffers in Uganda have contradicted this claim. And children are dying -- again, because of the feckless Elon Musk -- and the malign moron Donald Trump. Dammit. Here's the UK Independent -- on it all:

. . .A second child's death in Uganda, a 4-year-old, from Ebola, marks a setback in efforts to contain the outbreak declared on 30 January.

The child, who died on Tuesday, had been receiving treatment at the main referral facility in Kampala. This follows the earlier death of a male nurse, the first recorded victim of the outbreak.

The World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed the child's death on Saturday and said efforts were underway to bolster surveillance and contact tracing measures. . . .


It is deeply barbaric that we have the means and methods to prevent these deaths, but Musk and Trump are consciously choosing to kill children. Damn. Out.
