At least 10 laboratories have been closed and 7 quack lab attendants arrested in Masaka district for lacking minimum operating requirements. This is the outcome of an operation conducted by the Allied Health Professionals Council in the divisions of Kimaanya-Kyabakuza, Katwe-Butego and Nyendo-Ssenyange. Annet Brenda Mushabe, a quality assurance officer with the Allied Health Professionals Council says the team inspected 30 laboratories both government and private owned and established that majority were below standards.A good number were operating in very small rooms formerly used as toilets while others operated in dark dirty corridors without running water. Others lacked right laboratory equipment while others had monocular microscopes used in training schools for experiment instead of professional binocular microscopes.
