Yesterday I visited Mulago National Referral Hospital in Kampala, where a separate unit has been prepared to treat Ebola patients. I'm glad for the opportunity to meet with health workers in charge and thank them for their dedication. I am very happy with all the work invested in preparedness and readiness that I have witnessed.

I commend the Government of Uganda for the work being done to control Ebola and provide care for those affected. Uganda’s leadership has been central to the response, and World Health Organization (WHO) remains committed to supporting national efforts to stop transmission, save lives and protect communities.

Mwebale nnyo.

Did you know? More than 95 million children and teenagers live with hearing loss. Many don’t get health services to remedy this.

Spot the possible signs of hearing loss in children:

⁉️ Frequently asking you to repeat
📖 Struggling with attention or keeping up at school
👂 Complaining of ear pain or ear discharge
🗣️ Showing delayed speech and language development

Early checkups and simple treatments can make a big difference. Don’t wait! Take your child for a hearing test.
