Disruptive Communiction

The need for information has never been more important today with the outbreak of an epidemic of global magnitude. Despite the media being at the forefront in the fight against the Covid-19 virus, it has not been spared either. From the time the first case was reported in the City of Wuhan in China towards the end of 2019, the virus has wreaked havoc across the world leading to massive financial losses. Countries have come up with a raft of measures including lockdowns to contain the highly contagious virus. Recent survey by the Kenya Private Sector Alliance on Business Perspectives on the Impact of Covid-19 on Kenya’s economy paint a gloomy picture.

Saving lives of mothers and new born babies. Tanzania SUMBAWANGA, Tanzania – Pregnant women in some parts of Tanzania are still at unacceptably high risk of dying in childbirth, despite the government’s promises to make emergency healthcare services available to women in their communities. But in a new drive aimed at re-doubling efforts to save the lives of mothers and newborn babies, the Tanzanian Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda, will on March 15, lead the nation in marking the 9th Annual White Ribbon Day in Sumbawanga, Rukwa Region, one of the country’s worst affected regions. He is also expected to commission a new state-of-the art caesarean theater, donated to the community, by a non-governmental organization (NGO) affiliated to the White Ribbon Alliance, in a ground breaking ceremony in Mtowisa. The fully furnished facility worth $110,000 will serve as a model for other health centres in the East African country. The national event is aimed at urging the government ...
