Full Text | Many health centres in Uganda are without exclusive water supply, sometimes buying limiting portions from vendors or sharing a community unsafe water source. Sanitation and hygiene facilities are grossly substandard and not inclusive, with women and girls sharing a single unit latrine with men. Dangerous medical waste is carelessly dumped with neither designated collection points nor licenced incinerators. |
