Cause of death
I've just edited out a statement saying that she died of COVID-19. Neither of the cited sources mention COVID, and one of them specifically states that cause of death has not been determined yet. I'm going to assume no malicious intent at this point (as it's entirely possible that one of the sources originally made that claim before quietly deleting it without retraction), but please do not revert this edit without citing a reliable source that actually links her death to the disease. 67.8.203.16 (talk) 15:20, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
 * When I added the infobox, COVID-19 was mentioned. I did see it. MSN still claims that she died of COVID-19, however I'm sure that they don't have office in Uganda. I've found a story of 15 Sept that COVID-19 was suspected given her diabetics and trouble breathing. All later reports, don't mention it, so I assume that it was a false positive as well.

 * FYI, she is currently on the List of deaths due to COVID-19. I have not done enough research to feel comfortable removing her from the list, but I've marked it as dubious. Of the universe (talk) 00:18, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Seems a bit arbitrary to assume it was a "false positive" without a shred of proof. "There was no confirmation in later reports" makes no sense, as the two cherry-picked articles do not deny she had covid, they just say she died, without mentioning any cause. Finally, there is this more recent article that states she died while hospitalized for covid. --2.36.89.95 (talk) 15:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * On top of this, the two articles mentioned were both written on 15 September, the same day of her death. i.e. they are not "later reports". For all we know, they could have been written before the ones that mentioned covid, as this was not yet known at the time. And then there's still the 20 September article that states she was being treated for covid.
