New Vision (Kampala) - August 26, 2005
Dan Nsalasatta
Dr. Nsaba Buturo was opening the 33rd Joint Clinical Research Centre clinic at Kisoro Hospital.
He cautioned the Bafumbira that the HIV/AIDS clinic at Kisoro Hospital was not a warrant for them to indulge in promiscuity but to test to establish their status.
"I tested for HIV myself and the doctors said I was negative. The news excited me, just like anybody else, but it also taught me to be extra careful and to sensitise others," he said.
