The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) has formally requested that the United States government lift travel restrictions currently imposed on Uganda. These measures were implemented following a recent Ebola outbreak in the country, which prompted international concern regarding the spread of the virus.
The Africa CDC maintains that the restrictions are no longer warranted, citing Uganda’s transparent handling of the health crisis and the significant progress made in containing the outbreak. By emphasizing the country's effective response efforts, the organization is advocating for a normalization of travel protocols between the two nations.
