COVID-19 Pandemic and the LGBTQ Community in Uganda
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the LGBTIQ community in Uganda. People living with compromised immune systems, including some persons living with HIV/AIDS, face a greater risk from COVID-19. Homeless persons, a population that includes many LGBTIQ people, are less able to protect themselves through physical distancing and safe hygiene practices. Therefore, East African Visual Artists (EAVA) Limited, has published a series of interviews with different stakeholders to establish the impact of COVID-19 on the LGBTIQ members in Uganda.
