The Prime Minister, Dr Ruhakana Rugunda, on behalf of the national COVID-19 taskforce, has received a consignment of facemasks worth 100 Million Shillings from the Forum of South African Businesses in Uganda.

South African Business fraternity in Uganda under their umbrella body, FOSABU, has donated facemasks worth 100 Million shillings to National Covid-19 task force. The donation is aimed at curbing further spread of COVID-19.
As of 10th November, 2020, the ministry of health recorded 289 new infections, 6 new deaths, and 103 new recoveries, setting the cumulative confirmed cases of Ugandans to 14,993.
With a membership of over 80 enterprises, FOSABU members are advocating for business continuity in the COVID-19 era, under safe working environment.
