Uganda faces major challenges due to a shortage of healthcare workers! How is it possible yet we have medical interns that are forced to hold demonstrations, pleading with Government of Uganda to get deployed, year in year out! Ministry of Health- Uganda CEHURD Uganda World Health Organization (WHO) sites.brown.edu/publichealthjo…

⁦Uganda Medical Association⁩ has taken a stand on the medical interns’ plight together with ⁦CEHURD Uganda⁩ . We can’t sit back & watch the profession die hence call on ⁦⁦Uganda Nurses and Midwives Union⁩ ⁦Pharmaceutical Society of Uganda⁩ to join in and equally take action. #DeployAllMedicalInterns

U.M.A Uganda Medical Association has taken a significant step towards reforming medical internship. We have submitted proposals to the Secretary to the Cabinet, which will be presented to the President of Uganda. we are engaging in a series of meetings with MoH to homonise our position.

Dr Herbert Luswata Uganda Medical Association Congz Dr. Dr Herbert Luswata upon this milestone. We’re hoping against hope that the presentation to the Secretary to the Cabinet & proposed series of meetings to come really address the current problem at hand, the un-deployed medical interns and not reforms for the future only.

Dr Herbert Luswata Uganda Medical Association Such engagements should have involved intern leaders.... The representation of their views is key on such matters...matters that directly affect them...

87 percent of the population who live in the rural areas and the close to 20 percent of the population that live below the poverty line cannot easily access qualified medical personnel and quality medical care. bit.ly/4gi0UDl?utm_me…  #MonitorUpdates

“The neglect of medical interns is a clear indication of misplaced priorities. While the gov’t celebrates its achievements & projects a vision of progress, it is failing to address the fundamental needs of the health sector.” ⁦⁩#DeployAllMedicalInterns search.app/oaN7qVKe4egN6p…

This situation raises serious questions about the govt’s commitment to the welfare of its citizens. If past govts with far fewer resources, could prioritize the deployment and support of medical interns, why is the current administration falling short?! Ministry of Health- Uganda

From this article, it’s clear that persons outside the medical field understand the depth of the situation at hand, but how come Government of Uganda can’t seem to address this with the urgency it deserves?!
