Health Zimbabwe

The precarious situation in which the Zimbabwean health system finds itself cannot get out of the political impasse in which it finds itself mired. The strike that Zimbabwean doctors began two months ago to improve the quality of public health in the country has not achieved the desired reaction from the central government. The public health system in Zimbabwe remains extremely dysfunctional, even at the lowest levels of primary care, where hospitals are forced to refer patients to other central hospitals that are in even worse condition.
