Up to 90% of those who contract Ebola die from the virus
A fresh outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in Uganda has killed at least two people, the health ministry has said.
Two members of the same family died over the weekend in a district not far from the capital, the health minister told the AFP news agency.
An estimated 17 people died in western Uganda of the haemorrhagic fever during an outbreak in July.
According to the medical charity Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), there had been no cases since August.
