What are the sanitary conditions in Uganda ?
Be prepared and never expect a clean public toilet 100% of the time. Carry some tissue in-case you need to use the public toilet. Ugandan toilets generally do not do well when flushing large amounts of items or feminine hygiene products (i.e. tampons) so do not flush them. Rather, throw them away in the trash can (which is usually located close to the toilet). In some areas/restaurants, toilet systems are old and have very narrow plumbing and get blocked easily. In these cases, a small basket is usually placed beside the toilet (for used toilet paper). Use hotel lobby toilets; these are everywhere and are always clean. Still, they may not always have toilet paper and depends on the class of hotel.
