Beatrice Anywar wants government to do more on nodding disease

Kitgum woman mp Beatrice Anywar has re-echoed her call to the Government to intensify its campaign against nodding disease.

Speaking to journalists at parliament Anywar says that she thought that the measures put in place would have saved the children but currently the results are still negative and alarming.

She says that there are recent cases that have been registered in Kitgum district and at the same time victims are being raped due to lack of protection.

She also noted that the victims no longer have food and the last time they were supplied with food was in June.

Experts from the center for disease control and the world health organization have however not yet come out with clear causes of the nodding disease.
