KAMPALA – The secretary general of the Uganda Local government Association (ULGA) Gatrude Rose Gamwera has called upon the Central Government to provide the district health team with equipment as the country fights the spread of Covid-19.
Gamwera said that whereas a number of District health teams are in place to help in combating the spread of the virus, some of its members are reluctant and seem to run away from their duties for fear of succumbing to Coronovirus because they don’t have equipments to use while handling the patients.
She therefore called for the provision of the protective gears and facilitation to ensure the district health teams reach to the grassroot.
Gamwera notes that these district leaders should be provided with the required equipment to see them re-enforce the National health team to combat the spread of Corona virus.
