EXCITED FOR THE 60TH HEALTH WEEK?

The 60th UIMSA Health Week is upon us. Themed: “An Inverted Pyramid: The Nigerian Healthcare System”, the biggest health week in sub-Saharan Africa is set to hold March 19-27 and we’re all pumped no doubt. We asked some members of the association if they had attended or witnessed any UIMSA Health Week, what their expectations are and which health week activity they are looking forward to the most. Here are their replies:

This should be my third health week in UIMSA, but it’s the first one that I’ve been particularly involved with. As for my expectations, well, as the saying goes, “o ma loud”. It’s been a long time coming, with lots of prep and sweat going into it. I expect it to be a memorable week. I’m looking forward to the interclass debate since I’m on the committee. I’m hoping it’s a firework show.

Do you mean if I’ve attended the entire health week activities? If you do then that will be a No. But if you mean some past health week activities, Yes I have. I’m expecting lots of free food if possible. For the health week activities, I’m looking forward to the Symposium and Variety night.

What about you? Is this your first time attending the health week or you’re a regular? Whatever category you fall in, what are your expectations for this health week? Maybe you are not even interested at all. Whatsoever your reasons may be, this health week has definitely caught our attention with all the beautiful graphics and videos publicizing the event. It looks promising and I for one would like to know if it will definitely be worth all the hype it is getting. See you there if you are succumbing to your curiosity just like I am.
