Biography

The WHO published the following biography of Moses Galukande:

Galukande Moses

Moses Galukande, a specialist general surgeon in active surgical practice. He is also an academic and is Head of Surgery Department, School of Medicine College of Health Sciences at Makerere University in Kampala, which is Uganda’s oldest and largest university. He is a Director of Surgery, Education and Research for International Medical Group (IMG). IMG is a conglomerate comprised of a hospital, a health Insurance company, a pharmaceutical company and numerous clinics. He has contributed to HIV prevention control through delivery of Safe Male Circumcision (SMC) services. In collaboration with Infectious Disease Institute, at Makerere and other implementation partners supported by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), he has directly supervised the conduct of over 48,000 SMCs since 2011.

He has participated in several SMC related research and published several papers in the area. He is a member of the SMC safety monitoring team for the Ministry of Health, Uganda, as well as being a member of the WHO Technical Advisory Group on Innovations in Male Circumcision from 2014. Professor Galukande has authored over 110 papers in peer reviewed journals; he has worked both in the private and public health service delivery systems. He is also a medical education expert with special interest in curriculum development, evaluation and assessment for quality of Medical education. He sits on several education and health service advisory committees.[2]

Dr. Gaulukande was the lead autor of an article to report on the outcome of circumcision surgery with the PrePex circumcision device.[3] He reported favorably. It appears that he favors circumcision.

Population-based studies

September 2021 saw the publication of two huge population studies on the relationship of circumcision and HIV infection:

  1. Mayan et al. (2021) carried out a massive empirical study of the male population of the province of Ontario, Canada (569,950 males), of whom 203,588 (35.7%) were circumcised between 1991 and 2017. The study concluded that circumcision status is not related to risk of HIV infection.[4]
  2. Morten Frisch & Jacob Simonsen (2021) carried out a large scale empirical population study in Denmark of 855,654 males regarding the alleged value of male circumcision in preventing HIV and other sexually transmitted infections in men. They found that circumcised men have a higher rate of STI and HIV infection overall than intact men.[5]

No association between lack of circumcision and risk of HIV infection was found by either study. There now is credible evidence that the massive, expensive African circumcision programs have not been effective in preventing HIV infection.
