KAMPALA —The Ministry of Health has released a list of new Covid-19 vaccination centres in Kampala after resuming the exercise.

According to the Ministry, the 128,560 doses of AstraZeneca covid vaccines that the country received two weeks ago from the government of Norway will be administered in mainly markets, taxi parks, and business centres across the city starting Monday (today) to Friday.

“We expect about 100,000 doses for Kampala and the remaining will be distributed between Wakiso and Mukono,” Mr Emmanuel Ainebyoona, the Ministry spokesperson said on Sunday.

“We want to ensure that they are consumed before their expiry date which is at the end of the month,” he added.

Prof David Sserwadda, the government chief advisor on vaccine access and deployment, said: “The demand on vaccination in Kampala and Wakiso is unique. Someone comes from Kitgum District and he wants to travel and he might prefer to get the vaccine from Wakiso. There is very high pressure for vaccines in Kampala [metropolitan area].”

Mr. Daniel Muhumuza Nuwabine, the Kampala Capital City Authority spokesperson, said they were set for the exercise.

“We will ensure that SOPs are adhered to at vaccination sites. We don’t want to crowd and we want to have adequate facilities there for vaccination to go on,” he said. He said they had already exhausted the vaccines that were delivered by National Medical Stores, including the 11,000 doses of Sinovac vaccine for teachers.

Ms Sheila Nduhukire, the National Medical Stores PRO, confirmed that KCCA had received more doses.

The Ministry of Health is vaccinating those who are due for the second dose and those in priority groups such as teachers, health workers, the elderly, and persons with comorbidities such as hypertension and diabetes.

KCCA said they will maintain vaccination in the original sites, which include hospitals and schools. Some of the new vaccination sites.
