Kagadi district is at risk of losing over 4500 Dozes of Covid-19 Astrazeneca Vaccination Drug to expiration by July, after Publics' failure to turn up for Vaccination.

This was revealed last evening by the Kagadi district Health Department during a Covid-19 Vaccination Stake Holder's Advocate Meeting held at DEMU Hotel in Kagadi town council being organized by Kagadi district local government in collaboration with Baylor Uganda and World Health organization.

Addressing Participants on behalf of Dr. Oluwo James the Kagadi district Health Officer, Mr. Paul Bahinzi said the category of people selected for vaccination have failed to show up.

According to Bahinzi ,Only 799Dozes (15%) have been utilized out of  5330 total Dozes of Covid-19 Vaccine that were sent to Kagadi district.

He is alarming members of the public to rush to the respective vaccination centers to receive the Jab.

Meanwhile in his remarks, Hon. Ndibwami B Yosia the Kagadi District LC5 boss has overwhelmingly thanked Baylor Uganda and World Health organization for their deliberate intervention in fighting covid-19 diseases out of the district.

He has pledged his voluntary commitment of being a lead ambassador of advocating for Covid -19 Vaccination  throughout the district by taking his Jab before the close of this week, with optimism that this will attract other members of the public to the to also turn up.
