Oh my Goodness, are these figures even authentic or just mare sampled statistics. The next thing we will hear is chirundu border is the new epicentre of covid 19. Is it just me me or something is wrong in the ministry of health disease control?
Kindly it would be great to announce the results obtained or conducted from people residing in Zambia and not truckers who are in transit or better you hold hands with our Tanzanian counterparts in Tunduma…and work together coz those are their figures to follow up or trace.in short give us the zambian statistics nd not the tastes conducted on Tanzanians which are gloomy nd adding up a lot
