MUSEVENI ASKS UGANDANS TO BE SAFE FROM MPOX
NILE POST
President Museveni has asked Ugandans to protect themselves against Mpox.
Giving his New Year message, the president said Mpox is deadly that Ugandans should avoid catching it.
The president also noted that Mpox can be spread through having sex with a sick person.
He however urged that anyone with blisters on their body should report to the nearest health centre but also isolate from their families to avoid spread.
Uganda has confirmed over 1,000 cumulative Mpox cases and six deaths have been registered since the breakout.
Mpox is caused by the monkeypox virus with common symptoms including a rash, fever, headache, back pain, low energy, muscle aches and swollen glands.
