Tumwebaze together with the Minister of State for Animal Industry, Col Bright Rwamirama on Friday dispatched another 608,000 doses of FMD vaccines and other equipment to Districts Veterinary Officers.

Last year, the Minister handed over 500,000 FMD vaccine doses to District Veterinary Officers (DVOs) during an event held at the National Animal Disease Diagnostic and Epidemiology Centre (NADDEC) in Entebbe.

FMD causes a high fever for two to three days, followed by blisters inside the mouth and on the feet that may rupture and cause lameness.

It has affected districts such as Rakai, Sembabule, Lyantonde, Kyotera, Gomba, Kiruhura and Mbarara. Others are Isingiro, Ibanda, Kamwenge, Bulambuli, Kazo, among others.
