| Animal authorities in Uganda have reportedly banned the sale of meat in the capital, Kampala, as part of restrictions to curb an outbreak of the foot-and-mouth disease, which affects animals. | |
| "Movement of cattle, goats, sheep, pigs and their products and by-products from, to, through and within Kampala Capital City Authority , Kampala District, is prohibited until further notice," the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries said in a letter cited by several local media. | |
| "Livestock markets, slaughter places, including butcheries, loading grounds and animal shows in the entire district is hereby closed with immediate effect." | |
| The letter is dated 1 March but was received by Kampala authorities on Thursday, privately owned Daily Monitor newspaper reports. | |
| A city official told the newspaper that they will work with other agencies to enforce the quarantine measures, but local media say butcheries in the city are still operational. | |
| Highly infectious, foot-and-mouth disease causes fever and painful blisters inside the mouth and under the hooves - and can be fatal for young animals. | |
