About 50 MPs and staff in Uganda have tested positive for new Covid19, Omicron.
Chris Obore, the Director of Communications at Parliament of Uganda told this website that the sick legislators had participated in EAC legislative assemblies’ sports held in Arusha, Tanzania.
“They are being managed by Ministry of Health and parliament health team. No hospitalization case registered. The majority who went to Arusha are safe,” he said.
He said that the games were interactive in nature therefore the players could not strictly observe SOPs.
“In Tanzania the population doesn’t wear masks.”
