Big message? Test and know your status. In Uganda, only 85.3% of adults living with HIV know their status. For those who know, 99% are on treatment & of these 96.5% have achieved viral suppression. @newvisionwire #VisionUpdates @MinofHealthUG @DianaAtwine @DrAyumeCharles

At the opening of the 11th Uganda Heart Association Annual Scientific Congress yesterday. I congratulate the Uganda Heart Association for advancing cardiovascular knowledge, research, collaboration and advocacy, and emphasized the need to translate evidence and innovation into accessible, equitable and effective cardiac care for all Ugandans. As cardiovascular diseases continue to place a growing burden on our communities, we must strengthen prevention, early detection, specialized care, training and partnerships across the health sector. #MOHatWork

Após a conferência de imprensa do Selecionador Nacional, e no seguimento de uma conversa com o Presidente da Federação Portuguesa de Futebol, tomei a decisão de deixar o estágio da Seleção Nacional. A seu tempo, direi a verdade a todos os Portugueses sobre as razões que motivaram a minha saída da equipa nacional, à qual sempre me dediquei. Agora é tempo de desejar boa sorte a Portugal e a todos os meus companheiros de equipa, sem exceção.

Two Uganda Airlines planes carrying Uganda Cranes and Libyan players were supposed to have landed at Kabalega International Airport but have been delayed due to heavy rain. One aircraft carrying FIFA and CAF officials earlier successfully landed. This is ahead of the Uganda Cranes–Libya match on September 29. #VisionUpdates 📸 Simon Peter Tumwine
