Bushenyi District Education Officer Saul Rwampororo has rubbished rumors that some schools in Bushenyi have registered COVID 19 cases.

There have been rumors making rounds that some schools in Bushenyi have COVID-19 cases and that some of the learners are in quarantine.

Rumors come one month after Uganda ended the world’s longest school closure, ordering millions of students back to the classroom after a gap of nearly two years.

Millions of pupils and students had not attended school in Uganda since March 2020 when classrooms were shuttered as COVID-19 swept the world.
