According to Joachim Saweka, World Health Organization (WHO) representative here, tight border controls are not yet necessary although the immigration officers should be on alert.
With some people reluctant to disclose their exact areas of origin for fear of being inconvenienced and perhaps quarantined, it remains a challenge how the immigration staff will handle the situation.
According Saweka, a team of experts from WHO are also on the way to Uganda to beef up the team which is already camped in the affected district.
A ministry of health statement issued on Saturday urged the public to stay calm as all possible measures are being undertaken to control the situation.
The ministry urged the public to avoid direct contact with body fluids of a person suffering from Ebola by using protective materials like gloves and masks.
The public is also urged to burry people who have died of Ebola immediately and avoid feasting and funerals.
Government has also stocked the necessary drug supplies and logistics for case management. Isolation facilities have also been set up in the affected district.
"Any claim of somebody bleeding should not just be disregarded but should be rushed to the nearest health centre and then from there we are already working with the health system to try to instruct how to deal with these cases," said Saweka.
