"Having spent two incubation cycles of 21 days each, making a total of 42 days yesterday 10th January 2023, since the discharge of the last confirmed case on 30th November 2022. Also, having registered NO new Ebola case, despite sustained intense surveillance both at the epicenter districts and nationally, I now confirm that all transmission chains have been fully interrupted and take this opportunity to declare that the outbreak is over, and Uganda is now free of active Ebola transmission."
