The Wakiso District Community Development Officer (DCDO) Mr John Kyejjusa has said residents living at landing sites are still the most affected group in the delivery of health services due to decrease in income caused by Covid-19 outbreak.
“The financial capacity of the people at landing sites to meet the required health services is still low. The Covid-19 outbreak affected everyone but the earning capacity of these people was grossly affected; they cannot even meet the small costs of the health services,” he said.
