    THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA MINISTRY OF HEALTH PRESS STATEMENT UPDATE ON COVID-19 RESPONSE IN UGANDA 22 December 2020 Dr. Joyce Moriku Kaducu Minister of State for Health in charge of Primary Health Care 22nd December 2020 - The Ministry of Health would like to update the general public on the status of the COVID-19Pandemic in Uganda. OVERVIEW OF COVID-19 - THE NEW VARIANT STRAIN The Ministry of Health is closely followingthe global trends of a new variant strain (501. V2) of SARSCoV-2that has been reported in the United Kingdom, other parts of Europe and now South Africa and Nigeria. It has been shown to spread much faster but so far no evidence of high severity than the first strain. So far, we know that the new variant strain is spreading faster than what we experienced in the 1st wave. It is important to note that this new variant strain has NOT been reported in Uganda. The Ministry of Health working with regional partners, Africa CDC through Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI)will start genome surveillance for the new strain to determine its prevalence in the country. However, we know that the transmission of the virusxand the control measures remain the same as the virus in the 1st wave. i.e. Consistent mask use, social distancing and good hand hygiene. COVID-19 IN UGANDA As you are all aware, Uganda is in phase 4 of the pandemic. This means that there is intense and widespread community transmission of COVID-19in nearly all districts and with occasional and emerging hotspots.
