Uganda has reported its first case of the Indian variant of Covid-19
A sample from the infected person, who is receiving treatment at the Mulago National Referral Hospital in the capital Kampala, was taken on 26 March.
The country has also recorded variants from the UK, South Africa and Nigeria.
Confirmation of the Indian variant comes as India battles a second wave of coronavirus that has devastated its cities, with hospitals running out of beds and oxygen and funerals taking place in car parks.
Despite the surge in cases in India, there is not yet enough data to say the Indian variant is a variant of concern - a term used to describe the UK, Brazilian and South African variants.
