The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT & Xinhua | The Ministry of Health has ordered for 9 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine amid surging new infections in the country.
The ministry said in a statement issued that the vaccines will cover 20 percent of the country’s total population. “Plans are underway to secure additional doses of the vaccine to cover more people,” the statement further reads.

The ministry has warned that the COVID-19 situation in the country is getting worse, urging the public to follow the prevention procedures.
Uganda on Wednesday registered 1,199 new COVID-19 cases bringing the cumulative confirmed cases to 25,059. 12 new COVID-19 deaths were also registered
So far, Uganda has registered a total of 9,510 recoveries and 219 deaths since the index case was reported on March 21.
After reading this, someone comes out and tells the public that there is nothing Uganda needs from the U.S government! We need to clean our house and respect human rights because we need the U.S in every struggle of this tiny nation called Uganda. The other allies have within a short time indicated that they are after grabbing Uganda from Ugandans.
I agree. The vaccine is scary and is still in the experimental phase. As an American, I am urging you to resist and not take it. Please.
Thank you very much and i pray that you may keep us posted over this. You are some of the true friends that we desire to have.
