Uganda is preparing to move its cancer patients to the Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH) in Nairobi for radiotherapy treatment following the breakdown of the country’s only machine at Mulago Hospital.
Director of the Uganda Cancer Institute Jackson Orem said officials vetting the cancer patients to go for the treatment in Nairobi are in the final stages of selection, and it is expected that the patients will arrive in Nairobi soon.
