    Uganda Christian University (UCU) has vaccinated dozens of its students and staff at
    Alan Galpin Health Centre. The exercise was conducted between November 9th to 12 th .


    The vaccination is aimed at protecting both students and staff against Covid-19.
    The University has collaborated with the Ministry of Health to conduct the vaccination
    at the health facility. Over 800 UCU community members have been vaccinated at the
    facility this year.

    The facility uses three main vaccines: AstraZeneca, Sinovac, and Pfizer.
    Both students and staff have welcomed the idea of getting vaccinated at the University.
    Kevin Nalukwago a third student of Bachelors in Child Development and Children’s
    Ministry described the move as a step in right direction.
    “I believe that the ongoing vaccination at the University is the best way to protect us and
    the people we love at the University against the pandemic,” Nalukwago said, “Thank you
    UCU administration.”


    She appealed to students to utilise the opportunity to receive the vaccine.
    Brian Wanyama another student pursuing a Bachelors in Law also commended UCU
    administration for organizing to vaccinate students and staff on campus.


    The Minister of Education and first lady of Uganda Hon. Janet Kataaha Museveni has
    been encouraging universities to vaccinate their students and staff as a way of
    containing Covid-19 following the reopening of institutions of higher learning on
    November 1.
