Why is Zanis not out there with the loudspeaker, sensitizing people about social distancing and handwashing?
Block such countries
I wish they can consider female medical practitioner who are pregnant in this situation it is not safe for any of them especially those working at OPD.
So, you can see that if all the airports had been closed in Zambia, these Pakistanes could not have come into the country and we were not going have coronavirus cases that we have now. I therefore would like to appeal to the minister of health to consider shutting down all the airports before it is too late to do so. As you can see we now have goffers who may have additional coronavirus. I hope the minister is not waiting for more cases to be brought in before making a decision to shut down the KKIA. I am scared.
HH told you before we recorded any case that bane close airports, you said that’s discrimination. Mwamona nomba ubupuba bwenu bwalatuletelela.
ifisuma balakopa! even if you dislike a person who is delivering the speech, at least judge and get the content of their speech! HH was more than correct and timely advising. No doubt today cases are in their Hundreds! here is hypothetical: a person is from Dubai, makes contact with folks from Pakistan who have since tested positive. it takes a week plus to learn the man from dubai is now in Luanshya; how did he leave airport to his home town? how many contacts did he make? was he on a public transport or chartered ‘plane’ to luanshya? how about his close family and friends?
so the current 35 may just be what sees an eye and not necessarily whats on the ground!
Government is highly to blame for all this. If only they had put in measures to stop anyone re/entering the country especially these filthy Pakistanis who bring nothing but illnesses everywhere. Remember what happened in Haiti. A nation perished because Pakistans brought chorela there.
Just cross the airport please for the sake of as poor Zambians
Since we are being told that this Pandemic is coming from Pets with LUNG-WORM disease and the Symptoms are similar to COVID-19 , such as (a)•Fever
(b)•Cough and (c) •Shortness of Breath.
Since all these symptoms are common in both Pets with Lung Worm case and Humans with COVID-19 Case , why can’t we start some Clinical Trials of introducing Vaccines similarly to what we use to treat against Lung-Worm in Pets and administer such to Humans with COVID-19 Cases and maintain the Lethal Dose within stipulated Limits, say 50LD before its too late? Can we? Anyway this is my final advise to the World-thanks Team. If all these fails then lets stick to God’s Prayers.
This COVID19 …am only hearing numbers increasing you can’t close the border… Or send them back to Pakistan… Cos if it catches a Zambian then we can be Doomed…. Plz
