COVID-19 pandemic in Malawi

The COVID-19 pandemic in Malawi is part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was confirmed to have reached Malawi on 2 April 2020. Quotes It pleased the president to form a special committee to look into the matter. We have met three times and our last meeting was yesterday and the recommendation for the actual pardoning has now been forwarded to [to the president] today and we should be able to hear what comes out of there. One of the challenges is an obvious fact that our prisons are congested and the virus can easily spread. The second challenge is the lack of testing kits since we don’t have adequate kits to intensify both random and mass testing. External links Malawi Category:COVID-19 pandemic in Africa
