On September 19, 2022 Sudan Ebolavirus was identified in an individual from Mubende District, Uganda by the Viral Hemorrhagic Fever (VHF) Lab at the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) and on September 20, 2022 the Ministry of Health of Uganda officially declared an outbreak. The virus was sequenced at the VHF lab using unbiased next generation sequencing on an iSeq100. The new Mubende Sudan Ebolavirus genome is 99.6% complete and most closely related to Nakisamata Sudan Ebolavirus strain that emerged in Luwero District, Uganda in May 2011. The new sequence can be accessed here 20.
