For a mother waiting for her baby's HIV result, faster testing can mean faster treatment and greater peace of mind.
The U.S. company @AbbottGlobal delivered 100 mPIMA machines to ๐บ๐ฌ @MinofHealthUG, expanding Uganda's national testing network to 415 machines, with plans to reach 815 nationwide. This is what strong partnership looks like: American corporate innovation paired with Ugandan leadership, bringing lifesaving services closer to families.
Today is a testimony to the significant strides the Ministry has made in strengthening diagnostics in Uganda with the support of development partners such as Abbott. Point-of-care molecular testing will greatly help us achieve our global and national targets,โ Hon Anifa Kawooya
The guest of Honour, Mikael Cleverley, Chargรฉ d'Affaires at the US Embassy in Uganda noted that the United States Government has long supported Uganda's efforts to expand access to diagnostic services and strengthen point-of-care testing, emphasizing that a stronger health system in Uganda benefits both Ugandans and Americans.
Real public health becomes visible and meaningful when you witness the actual human lives and communities affected by disease, policy, or systemic gaps, Dr. Mary Adetinuke Boyd,the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Country Director for Uganda recounted her trip to Kalangala island and seeing first hand importance of diagnostic services and impact it has the health outcomes of communities.

Hassan Segujja, Abbott's Regional Sales Director, East Africa commended Uganda's commitment to ensuring that health care services are not limited by geography.
"Where a person lives should not determine whether they get diagnostic services, the investment we are seeing today is more than the machines deployed, its also an investment in access, speed and better health outcomes for the people of Uganda."
In his speech, Tephy Mujurizi, the executive director @lifecare_ltd gave a brief history and background of the impact private sector collaborations such as that of Lifecare Diagnostics/Abbott and the Ministry of health has had in disease trends especially in the HIV response and management in Uganda.
He pledged his commitment through the exisiting collaboration with @MinofHealthUG in the areas of technical support, installations of the platformsthrough continous field mentorship and monitoring.
Dr. Daniel Kyabayinze, the director of Public Health at @MinofHealthUG reitarated that indeed Point-of-care testing plays a critical role in Uganda's HIV response, and therefore the need to bring diagnostics to the people and make diagnostics count.

Dr Susan Nabadda, the executive director of Uganda National Health Labaratory services noted that point of care testing for viral load and early infant diagnosis plays a transformative role in decentralizing and accelerating HIV care particularly in resource limited setting, and therefore by moving high quality molecular testing to local clinics, hospitals or delivery wards, POCT addresses the critical operational barriers of standard lab networks.
#MPimaLaunch #MOHUganda #DiagnosticsAccess
Abbott today handed over 100 m-PIMAโข diagnostic platforms to the Ministry of Health, supporting faster, decentralised testing and quicker access to results for patients nationwide. Today's handover recognized our partnership with the Ministry of Health's leadership in expanding access to Early Infant Diagnosis testing.

TB doesn't wait for a lab to open. The Determineโข TB LAM Ag test supports rapid point-of-care screening, helping health workers catch tuberculosis earlier, where early detection can change everything.
This rapid test detects the LAM antigen (lipoarabinomannan) in urine samples, assisting you in your TB screening to rule-in sooner than traditional methods and enabling earlier treatment for your patient.

Same-day answers, same-day action. The m-PIMAโข Analyser combines the accuracy of molecular testing with a turnaround time fast enough to inform same-day treatment decisions, because in diagnostics, speed and precision shouldn't be a trade-off.

Regional efforts to strengthen disease outbreak preparedness remind us that resilient health systems depend on one critical foundation: timely, accurate diagnostics.
That is the role Lifecare Diagnostics is proud to play every day across Uganda.
