President Museveni to commission a 3year old hospital without X-ray machine and scan

Over 3600 children expected to be born in Uganda today

The facility was donated by telecom company MTN Uganda to improve blood storage capacity which has been a challenge at the regional blood bank especially during peak blood collection periods.

Mbale regional blood bank collects over 3,000 units of blood every month, against a storage capacity of 1,800 units.

The multi-million refrigeration facility was delivered to the facility by the company’s regional business manager, Mr. Isaiah Semamuli.
