Mr. President @KagutaMuseveni even with all government doctors working 24/7, we still have a huge shortage of doctors in government health facilities. You should request for a report on the status of doctors in all government health facilities across thw country. Interns come in to supplement. A medical intern spends 5 years in a medical school to get a Bachelor's degree ( MBCHB). In comparison with a three year bachelor's degree programme that would be an equivalent of Bachelor's and master's degree. Check how much a scientist with a three Bachelor's degree is paid in government.
Paying a medical intern with MBCHB ugx 2.5M is small change. One would call it under employment. Interns are not students, they hold MBCHB.
Simcerely the people around you are telling you lies. For the good of the country, let us pay all medical interns. If need be let us reduce on the money for government student loans and pay medical interns. It's just one year. But we have a lot of money to pay A-level holders over ugx 60M per month on top of ugx 300M for a car and other benefits. So how can we fail to pay medical interns. We should have our priorities right.
These medical interns are our future doctors. Nobody knows whom we shall meet in the hospital a few years from now. The interns we neglect today may be the same future Doctors to save our lives tomorrow.
So we stand with medical interns. At times it takes sacrifice to achieve a long term solution. So I advise interns for remain united and fight together for the welfare of all.
No retreat no surrender. You have the support of Ugandans from all walks of life. Yours is a just cause. Fight till the end.
Rt Hon @JoelSsenyonyi: We need to provide facilitation for these medical interns; there are about 2,000 of them and for a bare minimum of UGX 1 million, that's about UGX 24 billion per year, the government can find this money without a doubt.

Dear H.E @jessica_alupo,
How far has the government gone on the drawing board regarding the proposed Medical Education and Internship Policy?
Just asking on behalf of the 2,417 deployed interns.
Thank you so much.
Kind regards,
Concerned Intern Nurse

Good morning๐
As you step into a busy day, remember that the best form of self-care is protecting your body. A checkup today can save you a hospital visit tomorrow.
Prioritize routine screenings and stay healthy. Have an amazing, productive day ahead!

In this episode, we bring you real stories about stigma, health, and media.
These are voices that matter, and we want you to hear them.

๐๏ธ Donโt miss the conversation.
Talking about protection before sex isn't awkwardโit's being responsible.
Healthy relationships include honest conversations about sexual health. #safesex
Misinformation and stigma often prevent women and girls from seeking timely post Abortion Care.
Every one deserves access to accurate information and compassionate health care services without judgement.๐ช๐ช
You can see clearly from this call of 15.6.2026.
Every intern must have registered and obtained a provisional licence to work as medical doctor, nurse, midwife, dental surgeon or Pharmacist from the respective govt medical work/practice regulatory council e.g UMDPC.
Then the same govt comes to lie to the public how intern doctors are not doctors
Shame upon you govt bootlickers
#PayAllMedicalInterns
