Minister of Health and Child Care David Parirenyatwa has appealed for financial assistance to fight Typhoid and to prevent a cholera outbreak. Typhoid has already killed 9 people, with 76 percent of the reported cases in Harare alone.
Speaking to journalists Parirenyatwa said:
We are appealing to churches, PHD ministry leader Walter Magaya and others and the corporate world to contribute to refuse collection.
The conditions on the ground can lead to cholera outbreak at any time and that is something l do not want to see happening. We invite partners to help as well because we have done so before.
