A three-week lockdown has been declared in two districts of Uganda as the country battles an Ebola outbreak. Bars, nightclubs, places of worship, and entertainment venues will be closed in Mubende and neighboring Kassanda, and a curfew will come into force. The move is a U-turn for Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni, who previously said there was no need for such measures. This latest outbreak has reportedly killed 19 people among 58 recorded cases.
The outbreak began in early September in Mubende, about 80km (50 miles) from the capital Kampala, which has remained the epicenter. President Museveni had previously ruled out lockdowns, saying Ebola was not an airborne virus so it did not require the same measures as COVID-19. But on Saturday, he halted all movement in and out of Mubende and Kassanda districts for 21 days. He said that cargo trucks will still be allowed to enter and leave the areas, but all other transport will be stopped.

David de Gea is set for his 500th start for Manchester United, with Erik ten Hag praising his “huge achievement.” “It is fantastic. If you perform in 500 games for a club like Manchester United, that tells a lot about you. The talent, the personality – so that achievement is huge and I really reward that, I value that, and I want to congratulate him [for] that,” the manager stated. Chloe Bailey Clothing Line
De Gea is currently the longest-serving player in the dressing room, but his future is uncertain, with his current contract set to expire at the end of the season. Although United has the option of triggering a 12-month extension, the 31-year-old recently admitted that he was keen to sign new terms at Old Trafford.
Congratulations to the sportsman on this achievement.
