More Ugandans Turn Up for COVID-19 Vaccinations

KAMPALA - Uganda has resumed mass vaccinations against COVID-19 after running out of doses in June. But even with less vaccine hesitancy, essential workers say the rate of vaccination is too slow.

Two health workers share a table facing a long line of Ugandans waiting to receive a dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Many are here for their second shots and the officials have to check the system, to see if they qualify for it. Seventeen-year-old Kawalya Paul is among those standing in line as he waits for his card to be verified and stamped.
