New Ebola Outbreak in Uganda

Ebola Virus (www.CDC.gov) 
Here is a link to an ABC news article reporting on a new outbreak of Ebola hemorrhagic fever occurring near the capital in Uganda;  per report this outbreak is not epidemiologically linked to the outbreak of Ebola that occurred over the summer. This outbreak serves as another reminder of the unintended consequences of globalization, as the disease has been linked to increased human activity in forests.
