Dodoma/Arusha. Prime Minister Dr Mwigulu Nchemba has assured the National Assembly that Tanzania remains free from the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD), even as authorities intensify border surveillance and public education to prevent possible importation of the virus.
The government said it remains on high alert due to active outbreaks of the Bundibugyo strain in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Uganda, which continue to pose a regional risk because of frequent cross-border movement linked to trade, tourism, and social interaction.
