The Director of General Health Services MOH, Dr. Henry G. Mwebesa on 3rd December sent a letter to Health officials. He ordered them to make a follow-up on the vaccination of health workers against Covid-19.
He said that the order came after the government prioritized vaccination of the population against the scourge. Further revealing, he said the government identified this as one of the key requirements for the full reopening of the economy.
He however noted that he is aware that some officers have not completed the vaccination yet.
Dr. Abdorn Birungi, the Rubaga District Health Officer says he is compiling data to assess all health workers’ responses to the call.
