Prof Patrick Ogwang during the interview
Interviewed for Desert Island Discs by Simon Kasyate on Sunday, Prof PATRICK ENGEU OGWANG talks about his wonder drug, Covidex, and how President Museveni followed its successes keenly before approval by NDA last month. Excerpts:
Kasyate: You are the man on whom many hopes lie. Where are we with this Covidex. What is Covidex?
Well, Covidex is a gift from God. Because first, it is made from nature. Interestingly, those two main plants can only be found in Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya. One of them is called Z. Gilleti and the other one is Warburgia Ugandensis; it even has the name Uganda on it.
