*Mental patients at Ingutsheni Central Hospital in Bulawayo develop scurvy due to malnutrition* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?rj Makokoba MP Retired Colonel Tshinga Dube, who is also Minister of War Veterans revealed the outbreak of scurvy at Ingutsheni Central Hospital in Bulawayo during a tour of milling companies by Acting President Emmerson Mnangagwa in the city last Thursday. The psychiatric hospital caters for about 2 000 patients and entirely depends on Government’s budgetary allocations, which have not been adequate over the years. Bulawayo MPs have since called for urgent Government and private sector intervention to address the plight of patients at the referral institution, which is also experiencing drug shortages. Said Dube: ---------- Pindula is best experienced with the Android App. *Download APK here:* https://zero.pindula.co.zw/media/apps/apks/pindula23.apk _On Econet, Pindula does NOT use your data_ ---------- > I visited Ingutsheni Hospital recently and patients there are developing scurvy because of lack of proper nutrition. Those people there hardly have meat in their diet. The patients there need our collective assistance so that they have good health. Scurvy is a chronic disease caused by severe lack of vitamin C in the body. Its symptoms are swollen, spongy and purplish gums that are prone to bleeding.
