Resumo: Very few sera were found with group B virus antibodies but West Nile and probably Zika virus is thought to be endemic at a low level. Bunyarnwera group viruses are active in the area and Bwamba virus also appears to be endemic. Nyando virus antibodies were found in a considerable number of children aged 10 years or older and an epidemic probably occurred some 10-15 years previously; but there is no evidence that transmission is active at present.
