closed restaurants are closed it turned to get supplies the few stores that are still open . have anything in them so it's really very frank thomas just getting actual twitter feeds eat you've expressed some real frustration they look at some of the stuff that you've tweeted alz what are you spending your days doing are you afraid what is it just how do you feel about what's going on right now. everyone is too afraid to go out. we don't know who you could meet every time you go out you risk. contact with an infected person so we basically spend our days said maybe watching a few movies social media talking to your family that will. do you know why your government has not evacuated you and others were. thinking mind the last week the president said he has believed cheney is a full control of the situation and they have no need to evacuate well our prime minister you can an ambassador to china said we are safer here because if we turn to uganda we pose a greater risk their country because they are in no capacity to contain the virus think if one of us is infected and and spread it in the country can you understand that argument is if it doesn't do you at least appreciate that or does that make not no sense at all so you know it doesn't make any sense at all. other countries that have been about getting their citizens have been following the protocols to a sure that effected people don't mix with the population by continuing the sit ins for about 14 days which is the estimated incubation period of the. corollary us so. when you do that you get isolate those were effected from those who are fine right thomas what do you want your governments to do. the only way they could intervene for us is by way of acuity or $7.00 to $1.00 ugandan stranded the one right now. as the situation will only get worse from here right now very quickly thomas as you hinted at this in one of your tweets what risks are you taking in talking to the media or laws as one about not looking anywhere interviews and the things they tweet so i risk being probably expelled or at its worst deportation but since we're on the look down i can't be deported so all right that's

evacuating ugandans from china due to the corona virus outbreak the lawmakers of test the government to explain and evacuated ugandans immediately in her response a minister assured loamy because that the government is equally concerned but it is not seated she says that evacuating ugandans is an option that the government is looking at but she called me to a cell phone but she sees that china should as well be given a chance to help ugandans without in this having to bring their buckets or no not all parents under lottie's are amazed that these irrelative i spoke to told me that bringing back her brother should be looked at as a priority to be for the government can consider anything goes but until the government makes a final decision the fate of the ugandans in china remains in
