Sickle cell: Kampala a tale of two cities. Opinions


Upper Kampala
Lower Kampala

I spent the whole of yesterday delivering the sickle cell results for those tested at Parliament last year. My interaction with people has confirmed my long time belief that Kampala is a tale of two cities.

The questions people in upper Kampala are different from what people in lower Kampala (Down town) ask.

In upper Kampala the question is "Is there a cure for sickle cell disease?"
Lower Kampala "Is treatment for sickle cell disease available?"

But what both don't ask "Is sickle cell preventable?"

Over to you.
