A review of human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) in Uganda.
Sleeping Sickness epidemics have been occurring in Uganda since the beginning of the present century. These epidemics have been partially controlled in the past using the conventional methods of bush clearing, mass diagnostic surveys and treatment. Political and economic upheavals have greatly influenced the recurrence of these epidemics. This paper presents a review of the past and present situation and an outline of the control activities being undertaken in the country.
