Surveillance and reporting

Description

The novel human Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is highly infectious and given the number of travelers coming from affected countries, the risk of importation of COVID-19 into the country is considered very high by WHO. If not averted, COVID-19 can affect Uganda��s economy in several ways, some of which are: by directly affecting production, by creating supply chain and market disruption, and by its financial impact on firms and markets. With disruption of several facets of life such as closure of schools, workplaces and banning of public gatherings, the health, socio-economic and environmental impact of COVID-19 cannot be underestimated
