Uganda and Rwanda to hold joint health exercise amid regional disease threats: statement.
Starting November 10, Uganda and Rwanda will conduct a three-day mock health emergency exercise at the Katona/Gatuna border post, Uganda's Ministry of Health said in a statement.
The exercise is designed to test cross-border coordination, information sharing and preparedness to respond to public health emergencies, according to the statement.
"These activities are part of the exercise and should not be mistaken for an actual health emergency," the ministry noted.
This initiative aims to ensure safe cross-border travel and trade while strengthening regional health security, the statement emphasized.
