The uptake of COVID-19 vaccines among persons with DM at KRH is low, with only 57% having a full COVID-19 vaccination status. This underscores the progress in meeting the WHO recommendation of having a 100% COVID-19 vaccination uptake among people with underlying health conditions, including diabetes mellitus. At the policy level, the Ugandan Ministry of Health (MoH) may implement a provider-initiated vaccination strategy where healthcare providers who attend to DM patients during their routine clinic visits initiate the idea of vaccinating, sensitize, and spearhead myth-bursting around COVID-19 vaccines.
