The Ugandan MPS that recently returned from China are to be\nisolated until they are medically approved to be free of the virus. However the\nUgandan students that have endlessly asked to be evacuated are still stuck in\nthe middle of a virus outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier this week, the Health minister, Dr. Jane Ruth Aceng\nsaid it is against the World Health Organization guidelines to evacuate\ncitizens from China. This leaves a big question about how the other countries\nwere able to evacuate their citizens from Wuhan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She also added that it is safe to keep those persons in\nWuhan there because the city is under lockdown and Uganda doesn\u2019t have enough\ncapacity to handle the virus. But the numbers of deaths due to the virus keep\nincreasing every day in that same city so the citizens there are in more danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This has left many wondering if the lives of these students don\u2019t\nmatter to the government. However the government said there is no plane\navailable to airlift the students back home. The government promises to send\n$61000 to the students to cater for their food and other supplies. The money isn\u2019t\nof much use to the students since markets are closed and most stores are\nrunning out of food.\n\n\n\n\n\ndunhid<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
