Earlier today, I paid a courtesy call on the Deputy Speaker of Parliament, @Thomas_Tayebwa, for a conversation on the burden of malaria in Uganda. @Thomas_Tayebwa, who is also the patron of the Uganda Parliamentary Forum on Malaria, has consistently emphasized over time that the fight against malaria is a critical national responsibility, especially as the country continues to rank among the highest-burden nations globally.
Today’s conversation also revolved around the Parliamentary Malaria Walk scheduled for 26 April 2026 at the Parliament of Uganda. The event aims to raise awareness, inspire collective action, and advance toward zero malaria deaths in line with this year’s World Malaria Day theme.
As a champion in the fight against malaria, drawing from my work as a media personality who has long covered stories on the negative impact of malaria on communities, I strongly believe that no one should die from a preventable and treatable disease like malaria, and that ending these unnecessary deaths is within our reach through united national effort, community involvement, and initiatives such as malaria-free schools.

@MicieliA_MD @aleidimed Triptans – selective 5-HT1B/1D agonists.
Effective for
moderate–severe migraine or when NSAIDs/acetaminophen fail ⤵️
Sumatriptan (oral, nasal, SC)
Rizatriptan, Zolmitriptan
NSAIDs – ibuprofen, naproxen higher doses can be more effective than OTC doses

He has tried Tylenol, and Advil with his GP.
He has presented to the ED 3 times, each time receiving the IV migraine cocktail and a CT head.
You see him in clinic. No additional pertinent clinical/exam findings.
What are your treatment recommendations? #MedEd

@DrEmjh Actually we have good dialysis services , the most concerning is fees for the sessions are high
English

@ChefKarim02 In Uganda bro!!… Our machines are outdated. The only place with machines that I can recommend is Mulago!!
Bro I know what (good dialysis) can do. But in Ug?? No!
After your first session (even if it’s hyperkalemia or metabolic acidosis or toxins). There’s NO COME BACK

🔥 Dear private practitioners, it has come to our notice that there are many mushroom clinics setting up dialysis units.
🔥 Please note that our new guidelines for CKD clearly stipulate the guidance on setting up dialysis units.
⚡ ⚡ Tokoka error!

📚🪦💀A 60YM with HTN + hyperlipidemia presented to the ED with CP for 2 days. On initial examination, BP 153/89, PR 65, RR 20
➡️A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was obtained during an episode of worsening chest pain (Figure, A).
➡️A second ECG was recorded 5 minutes later when the patient developed hypotension (Figure, B). What mechanism led to EKG changes ⁉️💥🫀 @IhabFathiSulima @HeartUganda @TrackYourHeart @UgandaPhysician @HeartAssociatn @HeartUganda @kisubi_hospital @MulagoReferral @ManualOMedicine @MakCHS_SOM @MiguelP23970914 @smithECGBlog @DrRazi4 @seedug_learning

For a long time, artists have been on the losing end of Caller Ringback Tunes (CRBTs).
Telecom companies have been taking the lion’s share of over 80%, while the very people who create and invest in the music receive as little as 1.8%. Imagine putting millions into producing a song, only to earn almost nothing from one of its biggest revenue streams. Typical exploitation!
The proposed amendment to the Copyright and Neighbouring Rights law seeks to correct this imbalance with artists (the creators and investors) earning 60%, telecom companies -31% and aggregators - 8.5%
From 1.8% to 60% is it not worth celebrating?

@rkalyes1 Non-compliant health facility like those into dialysis set up's needs closure and regulatory sanctions

@solobliss1 P. Ulcers They are usually caused by H. pylori infection or NSAID use, but casual contact like kissing isn’t a route of transmission.
Cold sores (HSV-1), on the other hand, are highly contagious through kissing, because the virus lives in saliva and on the skin around the mouth
English

@solobliss1 Peptic ulcers dont spread through kissing unlike cold sores (HSV-1) which spreads through kissing
