#Marburg virus cases

Attempts to untangle the cases...from the previous article:

Lydia Rusanyuka died Saturday morning at Rushoroza health center three after spending less than a week under medical care inside the isolation center.

Has to be:

Name:   Female (54)

From:     Kabale

Adm:   10/21  Rushoroza Healthcare Ctr

Confirmed:  negative

Notes:  Mother  to the deceased son, who died last week http://tinyurl.com/93353vv

Rusanyuka, the mother of a mortuary attendant who also succumbed to the disease had been tested positive with the virus prior to her death.

Her son, Jason Tumukunde also died of the same disease.

I don't know who that is.  I do have this victim, but he was just admitted on the 23rd, and that goes against a comment in a previous post:

The Kabale District Health Officer, Dr Patrick Tusiime, said on Friday that the new victims were the relatives of Kabale Regional Referral Hospital mortuary attendant Jason Tumukunde, who died four days after he treated bodies of people who had died of the virus on October 4.

Jason Tumukunde - confirmed, dead.
Mother to Jason - confirmed, dead.
Wife to Jason - confirmed, hospitalized
Sister to Jason - confirmed, hospitalized
Daughter to Jason - confirmed, hospitalized.
