<p>The UK regularly engages with the World Health Organization (WHO) and other international
partners, including the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness (CEPI), to support research
and use of vaccines to prevent and mitigate the spread of ebolavirus disease. For
example, the UK supported research to develop an effective vaccine against the Zaire
ebolavirus, which is approved by WHO and national regulatory authorities, and is used
to control outbreaks in west and central Africa. The UK is also currently in regular
dialogue with WHO, CEPI and other partners as part of our wider support to the Government
of Uganda to take trials forward for candidate vaccines against the Sudan ebolavirus.</p>
