Medics at Soroti Regional Referral hospital have said that the surviving Amuru siamese twin has recovered and is completely out of danger.
Last month, the doctors successfully separated a dead conjoined twin from her living sibling. The twins were delivered by caesarean section at Amuria health centre IV in Amuria district in northern Uganda to Joyce Alinga, a 21-year-old who conceived during the long COVID-19 lockdown.
But moments after the caesarean birth, one of the twins was found dead while the other was still alive, prompting medics in Amuria to refer the children to Soroti hospital for possible detachment. But the team in Soroti also referred the family to Mulago National Referral hospital.
