We need to applaud our leaders when they get it right. So Thank you Your Grace! Btw, WHY CAN'T GOVERNMENT PAY ITS INTERN DOCTORS? I have been trying to understand it clearly: Why can't Government find money to pay a few thousand intern doctors? WHAT IS THE LOGIC? Because it is not the money as the Archbishop correctly points out. If you have Shs 200bn to spend on cars for People, many, who even FAILED THE ARTS you are refusing to pay for now, how can you FAIL TO FIND just Shs 28bn for 2000 INTERN DOCTORS? WHAT IS THE LOGIC? Refusing to pay ARTS TEACHERS and you Pay SCIENCE TEACHERS MORE, produce the SCIENTISTS AT THE UNIVERSITY, then refuse to pay THESE SCIENTISTS, BUT INSTEAD PAY THE ARTISTS, even HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUTS(MPs) with Shs200bn FREE CARS? BTW, WHY DO WE GIVE FREE CARS TO MPs WHO EARN SHS 50 MILLION PER MONTH? WE WHO STRUGGLED WITH BLOOD AND SWEAT, AND THOUSANDS DIED TO BRING ABOUT THAT PARLIAMENT; THEY DON'T BUY CARS FOR US; AND WE DON'T DEMAND! We buy our own Cars. And those who can't, THEY USE TAXIS! So what is it with these POLITICAL FREELOADERS? Here is my take: Either the People in charge are SUBVERSIVE; ie, silent enemies of the State, or they are extremely ignorant and incompetent! So, which is which? The GOVERNMENT has placed SCIENCE STUDY at the centre of the EDUCATION SYSTEM. I hear the President drumming it up daily. They even increased Salaries of Science teachers tenfold, and abandoned Arts teachers, etc. And in this endeavour, many young people are taking Science subjects: Medicine; Engineering; Food Science; AI, Environmental Science, etc. Take THESE INTERNS/Doctors. The biggest field, perhaps second to ARITIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE(AI) today is BIOTECHNOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY. There is so much going on in these areas which deal with the application of BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS AND ORGANISMS to make and use things like VACCINES, GENE THERAPY,etc, which are central in the quest for DISEASE ERADICATION. The Bridging of the gap between LABORATORY RESEARCH and PATIENT CARE is now the bedrock of GLOBAL HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS. So why would government not support people who are key in such fields; i ask again, WHAT IS THE LOGIC?
“You cannot say that you have Shs158 billion to purchase cars for MPs and then claim that you do not have Shs 28 billion to pay medical interns’ allowances, with the excuse that it would crush the economy. By the way, doctors are rarely in the hospitals. It is the medical interns who are everywhere doing the donkey work,” Archbishop Stephen Kaziimba Mugalu READ:👉bit.ly/4agNWV0 #MonitorUpdates

The entire country(Ugandans) should stand with Intern Doctors(Graduate Doctors under supervision), otherwise we shall all suffer.

"ICU is where patients go to die." A nationwide Ugandan study is challenging that narrative. The MOTIVATE-ICU study found that outcomes for ventilated patients are linked to factors we can change: lighter sedation, daily breathing trials, and adequate staffing. #ICU2026

"Many Ugandans Still Believe that Ebola is a Hoax". Wondering how we got to this level!

Ebola Cases have been reported in both DRC/Congo and Uganda. Ebola spreads through direct contact with blood/body fluids of sick people, dead bodies, or contaminated surfaces. It does NOT spread through air. Protect yourself: Wash hands, avoid contact with sick people & bushmeat, report fever bleeding symptoms fast to health workers. Early care saves lives. Stay alert, Do not be Afraid.

In one case, the mother 'literally summoned each one of us separately and demanded for a solution or else they take their patient' (I say it in good faith). We all went home and read 📚 😪 🙂 😌 ☺️. The surprise was we each separately called the team on ground a few hours later and separately prescribed the same plan, varying only in the dose (quite expected amongst Internal Med specialists 😁) @ISNkidneycare @ISNWCN @CharuMalik_ISN @McMasterU @Ug_kidneyf @IAmTheOlum @UgandaPhysician @ecsacop
