ITN Universal coverage proposed for Uganda is a good idea to malaria control and prevention. For this move to bear the expected effects and impact on malaria in Uganda community Needs Assessment should have been done to establish various community preferences on the nets as per colour, shape, size,net materials and type/size/shape of houses pepople sleep in. This will prpomte the acceptance and utilization of the nets. What ever steps are are taken not 100% of the pepole in Uganda will be using the nets. Therefore to avoid loopholes and pockets of malaria infection within a particular community. I recommend that distribution of nets to any community should be conducted concurrently with other Uganda malaria approved interventions such case management, IRS and Information, Education and Communication.
