I have had an opportunity to share sometime with these beautiful children from an orphanage called #HopeForKatangaKidsProject
These are children, with different misfortunes in their young life that were brought together and taken care of by some wonderful people.
Active case search remains one of the strongest tools in Ebola outbreak response.
Teams from AFENET and @MakSPH continue supporting surveillance, case investigation, contact tracing, and infection prevention and control activities across Kampala health facilities to strengthen early detection and prevent transmission.

The @MinofHealthUG has officially launched the National Safe Birth Awareness Campaign in Sembabule district.
This campaign is a call to action: That all pregnant mothers seek early ANC, and deliver with skilled health workers and that health workers provide respectful care.
A powerful moment came from the RDC - Mukono District, who made a passionate appeal to the Central Government for increased financial assistance to Mukono General Hospital.
The goal is to ensure it is fully functional and equipped to serve every community member.
Today, the Permanent Secretary, MOH officially launched the Knowledge Center at Kawempe KNRH, a centre of excellence dedicated to transforming maternal and newborn health care in Uganda. Funded by the European Union, UNITAID & UNFPA, with technical support from @NasmecUG.
It is not true that there’s no money to stock those Health Centers with drugs! It is not true that there’s no money to work on that bad road to your home! It is not true that there’s no money to pay teachers and medics!
The money is there but it is for their champagne & Whisky!
I've had my mtn line since I was about 9 years old, since I got my first "kabiriti" phone😂. I've been with the same line from childhood to adolescence to adulthood. @mtnug, I am thankful for your reward, but surely there has to be a better reward for loyal customers like me😂
🚨 Why are kids still dying of AIDS in 2024?
Barriers like delayed diagnosis and limited treatment access are costing lives. We must act to ensure no child is left behind.

Antibiotics are becoming less effective against common infections due to overuse & misuse.
Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional before taking antibiotics.
More from @WHO during Antimicrobial Awareness Week: https://t.co/QC76eCp0ib
Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is a global public health concern. It is estimated that over 10 million deaths will occur globally by 2050 if proper interventions aren’t put in place. This month, we are working with partners to raise awareness on AMR.
It’s World AMR Awareness Week.
If #AntimicrobialResistance (AMR) gets out of control, we’ll run out of treatment options.
💊 We need to use antibiotics responsibly to prevent the spread of antimicrobial resistance.

9m cash for ICU admission and 1m daily. Strange we are all comfortable knowing we are one hospital bill away from abject poverty! Car washes have become a trend. 45 million of us can't think of more sustainable ways to finance our health system? @SemweyaMusoke@richard_atuhrwe
