Mulago National Referral hospital needs 39.4 billion shillings to admit 150,000 patients, conduct 88,944 X-ray images and over two million laboratory tests.

He says the same money would be used in the construction of the women hospital at Mulago and completion of the hospital staff block.

The Executive Director of Mulago Hospital, Dr. B. Byarugaba says that the hospital is still faced with the issue of understaffing, underfunding, overwhelming workload, absenteeism, and poor attitude of the hospital staff towards work.

The doctor however urges the members of the public to stop the habit of demonizing Mulago National Referral Hospital.
