Museveni goes after Kenyans for propagating false and misleading reports in latest health update on covid 19.
On Tuesday, June 13, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni criticized a section of Kenyans he claimed were spreading inaccurate information about his health status.
Museveni was irked by reports claiming he was admitted to Intensive Care Unit and was on oxygen support.
He thus dismissed claims that he was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, noting that he was recovering well from Covid-19.
“I noticed some few individuals from, I think, Kenya, saying that I was in ICU. If I were in ICU, the government would inform the country. What is there to hide?” Museveni wondered.
Museveni explained that at no particular time had he required intensive care for the days he was battling the virus.
“I have not been to bed as a sick man in the house here except for sleeping, let alone being in a hospital bed, whether ICU or otherwise,” he remarked.

On his progress, the President noted, “Except for Tuesday and Wednesday when there was a mild flu-like fever, I only had some drowsiness on Thursday and mild headache at night.”
Museveni remarked that all the symptoms had faded by Friday, June 9, and he resorted to doing paperwork.
President Museveni, however, said he still tested positive for Covid-19, which has kept him in self-isolation.
He thanked those who had sent get-well messages.
“I thank those who took the trouble to sign the boards at the Gate of Nakasero,” he said.
“Continue praying, we shall overcome.”
