Contact tracing (CT) can support Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak control, but its effectiveness depends on rapid identification and regular, close monitoring of contacts. Ideally, all new cases should be previously-known contacts and spend minimal time ill in the community. After declaring an EVD outbreak on September 20, 2022, the Uganda Ministry of Health rapidly initiated CT.  We assessed the performance of CT for EVD in Uganda from September 20-January 11, 2023.
