Former Commissioner in the Health Ministry, Dr Francis Runumi has fully recovered from Coronavirus and is scheduled to return to his home.
As he leaves Mulago Hospital where he was admitted for some time while receiving treatment, Runumi appealed to a section of Ugandans that still think COVID-19 is joke to observe the SOPs.
He left behind an Emotional Message:
God has given me a lease of life again. Neera. Today I leave Mulago healed after battling Corona, which some people still take to be a quasi joke. No thanks.
It is not a joke. You will be picked, isolated and paralysed as Prof. Nsibambi used to emphasise to stubborn people.
Don’t be a statistic in its line of duty. It is dead serious you start adoring the free oxygen you are breathing right now. You will be alone with that phone as the only window to the dearest.
Most grateful to your support. Prayers, encouraging messages, spiritual references, money, love , kept flowing from all of you.
People I had forgotten showed up with love.
I am so heavily indebted to you all.
For the medics in Entebbe and Mulago the job you are doing is simply incredible. Too much to say here but not now. Good guys.
I have no appropriate channel to reach all to Thank you. Thank you.
Am healed and heading home any minute. SOPs are everywhere. Blame yourself for any breach.
