Officials Say Ebola Contained to 2 Areas

Ugandan health officials said an outbreak of Ebola that has killed 100 people is contained to two areas but that the death toll will increase as infected people die. Authorities had hoped to keep the disease in Gulu, where the outbreak was first reported in mid-October. Gulu is about 225 miles north of the capital, Kampala. But last week, experts confirmed that a Ugandan soldier who had visited Gulu died of the disease in Mbarara in the south. Five people have been discharged from hospitals in the past day, bringing the number who have recovered to 171.
