Of those that tested positive, majority or 317 (71.8%) were truck drivers, 75 (16.9%) were community cases and 50 (11.3%) were international arrivals. We classify the cases into three categories namely: international traveller, local/ community cases, and long-distance truck drivers. Of those that tested positive, majority or 317 (71.8%) are truck drivers, 75 (16.9%) were community cases and 50 (11.3%) were international arrivals as shown in Table 1 below. Long distance truck drivers have established themselves as the highest risk group for COVID-19 currently in Uganda. The epidemic is now literally being driven by the truck drivers who have emerged as a core group for COVID in Uganda.	./cache/cord-355480-mx9dbm73.txt	./txt/cord-355480-mx9dbm73.txt
