Marie Nanyanzi, the Program Officer from Twaweza, while presenting the 2021 report on emergency response in Uganda, mentioned that in some cases, when a person witnesses an accident, they hesitate to assist because they fear that if they take the patient to the hospital, they will be held responsible for the accident and asked to pay the bills.
Dr James Daniel Odongo, Apac District Health Officer, said despite all the efforts to trace and investigate the cases, they are affected by limited funds.
