I welcomed Hon. Beccy Cooper MP, Chair of the UK All-Party Parliamentary Group on Global Health.
We discussed strengthening Uganda-UK collaboration in healthcare, particularly in medical training, skills transfer, and improving health service delivery. I also briefed her on Uganda’s successful defeat of the recent Ebola outbreak, which demonstrated the dedication of our health workers and the effectiveness of our response systems.
Myanmar's health system is nearing collapse. Since the 2021 coup: nearly 2,000 attacks on healthcare, 900+ workers arrested, 170+ killed. Over 16 million now need life-saving assistance.

Vaccines only save lives if they get to the right child, at the right time.
At @nmsuganda we saw how @GovUganda @MinofHealthUG @gavi @GlobalFund are strengthening the system: cold-chain to 3,500 health facilities nationwide.
So more kids vaccinated. Fewer stockouts. 💪🏾 health
