Malawi’s government Monday announced its first anti-coronavirus restrictions after the country’s president overruled a court ban on lockdowns.
Last year, Malawi defied the path taken by the rest of the African continent in fighting COVID-19 as the Malawian High Court barred the government from confining citizens to their homes.
Last April, judges ruled that there were not enough measures in place to cushion the loss of livelihoods in the poor Southern African country.
Now Malawi is grappling with rising COVID-19 infections.
On Sunday, President Lazarus Chakwera ordered a night curfew, adding that the country’s schools would be closed for 21 days.
