"We have started preparing our children for this year's circumcision season after we got the green light from our elders," said Mr Allan Baraza, the Mayanja circumcision committee coordinator. AdvertisementShadrack Apalala Juma from Mayanja Kibuke said that Luhya traditions dictate that parents must circumcise their children within a certain period. Mr Baraza however said that there was no one in the area who had tested positive for Covid-19. "Anyone who tests positive for Covid-19 will be taken to hospital and treated. It is interesting that we are yet to witness any Covid-19 positive cases in our area or even from relatives who reside in urban areas," he added.
