The Public Health Institute of Malawi (PHIM) says continuous availability of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for medical facilities plays a crucial role when conducting laboratory tests of different diseases including the corona virus that causes Covid-19.
PHIM’s Head of National HIV Reference Laboratory Dr. Bernard Mvula made the remarks when he was receiving a donation of various personal protective items worth over K21 million from Alliance One Tobacco Malawi.

More than 16,000 expired AstraZeneca Covid-19 doses are to be destroyed in Malawi as concerns over vaccine hesitancy increase.
The vaccines are among 102,000 doses donated by the African Union (AU) to the Malawian government last month.
Health campaigners are concerned that the possible link with rare cases of blood clots and rumours that people were being given out-of-date doses of the vaccine were putting people off coming forward.
Currently, about 230,000 doses have been administered, enough to vaccinate nearly 1% of the population. As well as doses from the AU, the country received more than 400,000 AstraZeneca shots from Covax and the Indian government.
