National parks and safari lodges have adopted enhanced hygiene and safety measures, including temperature screenings, sanitation protocols, and professional ranger guidance. Visitors to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth, and Murchison Falls can safely enjoy gorilla and chimpanzee trekking, wildlife drives, and nature walks without disruption.

The Uganda Ministry of Health continues to actively monitor potential outbreak areas and high-risk zones to ensure the safety of residents and travelers alike.
Enhanced Safety Measures at Parks and Lodges
National parks including Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Kibale Forest, Queen Elizabeth, and Murchison Falls operate with strict health and safety protocols. Lodges and safari operators, including NextGEN Safaris, implement measures such as:
- Regular temperature and health screenings for guests and staff
- Sanitized accommodations and transport vehicles
- Trained guides and rangers who follow hygiene protocols during treks

These measures ensure that visitors can enjoy gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking, and wildlife drives safely without disruption.
Vaccinations and Health Preparation
Travelers are advised to:
- Be up to date on routine vaccinations and have proof of yellow fever vaccination.
- Continue malaria prophylaxis, as malaria symptoms can mimic viral hemorrhagic fevers like Ebola.
- Bring travel health insurance covering emergency treatment, evacuation, or medical support if needed.
Personal Health and Emergency Guidelines
Visitors should practice standard health precautions, such as frequent handwashing and avoiding contact with sick individuals or animals. In case of any symptoms resembling viral hemorrhagic fevers, travelers should seek immediate medical attention at designated hospitals or lodge medical staff.
