The Covid 19 pandemic has with no doubt disrupted many lives and affected the social, economic and political atmosphere across the world.
The Fund donated 5,000 Coronavirus (COVID-19) test kits worth over Ushs 381 million shillings to the Ministry of Health, of which Ushs 60 million was contributed voluntarily by individual NSSF employees.
Our decision to donate test kits was informed by the model Government is employing in combating the coronavirus, which is an emphasis on testing as many suspected cases as possible, as well as their contacts. In addition, the World Health Organisation has also emphasised the need to escalate testing.
