This was revealed by Manicaland provincial epidemiology and diseases control officer, Munyaradzi Mukuzunga who said Cases surged 100%, the province only recorded 46 deaths during the same period last year: > Mutare and Mutasa had 22%, Chipinge 11%, Makoni and Buhera had 9% each. As of last week, we had 98 deaths across the province from malaria compared to 46 that we had in the same period in 2019, Dr Mukuzunga shed light on the measures they were taking to compact the killer disease and said: ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- > We are planning for indoor residual spraying (IRS) that will start September and October. The uptake of the programme was low due to some misconceptions surrounding the chemicals. What you need to realise is that in Chipinge two years ago, it was burdened with malaria, contributing 35 of total cases in the province. > At one time, Chipinge was spraying organophosphates but epidemiology data told us that it was not working for them. We had to change to start spraying DDT so the gains we are now getting are because of the use of DDT. It`s only the district that had a decline comparing the time we are in and comparing 2019. Malaria cases have surged in 2020 as fatalities have been recorded in many parts of the country since January 2020 More: New Zimbabwe _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
