Very Unfortunate News -- The Latest Uganda Ebola Outbreak Is Spreading -- Now Twelve Cases... And Musk / Tangerine 2.0 Fiddles.


This is going to be. . . inexorably. . . political. As Musk and Trump continue to foot-drag / defy several federal court orders (including the Supreme Court's, as of this morning!). . . people are dying of a new Ebola viral outbreak in Kampala.

It is. . . deeply infuriating (as it would be mostly. . . avoidable). CIDRAP has all the latest, here:

. . .An investigation into Uganda's latest Ebola Sudan patient, a 4-year-old boy who recently died, revealed that his mother and newborn sibling died a few weeks earlier from likely Ebola virus infections, the World Health Organization (WHO) African regional office said in its weekly health emergencies update.

The report also notes that the 4-year-old boy, who initially received care on February 15, was taken to four healthcare facilities as his condition worsened, before his Ebola Sudan infection was confirmed in tests after he died on February 24. This fact raises the risk of additional transmission. . . .


What is wrong with these reprobates? Dammit.
