PRO/AH/EDR> Ebola-like illness - Uganda (03): (LW)

Hemorrhagic Fever -- Uganda
Results from the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) have [possibly] demystified the strange disease that early this week led to the death of a 20-year-old female in Luweero.
According to a statement from the ministry of health, the female who suffered high fever, dizziness, and blood secretions from her ears and mouth died from high levels of carboxyhemoglobin, as a result of carbon monoxide poisoning.
There are currently 3 female cases admitted at Bishop Asili hospital, Luweero.
