We are delighted to introduce a new pictorial segment for the Nurses and Midwives letter which showcases images of nurses and midwives around the country at work. During Covid-19, every nurse and midwife has been on the frontline either directly involved in the care of Covid-19 patients or fostering continuity of care for millions of Ugandans who continue to experience ill health. We salute you all for your dedicated work. In this issue, we highlight two nurses at work:
