Ugandan Woman Isolated in Jaipur Over Suspected Ebola Symptoms, Tests UnderwayPreviousNext

A 19-year-old Ugandan woman visiting Jaipur from Sharjah was isolated at Rajasthan University of Health Sciences Hospital after showing symptoms resembling Ebola virus disease. Samples have been sent to a specialized laboratory in Pune for testing, with results expected within 48 hours. Health officials have not confirmed Ebola and are following strict quarantine and monitoring protocols. Passengers from the same flight have been advised to self-isolate as a precaution amid heightened surveillance due to ongoing Ebola outbreaks in Africa.
