The challenge is to address COVID while not ignoring the health issues that already exist. Going backward on malaria in Africa could be devastating. As the malaria season begins in southern Africa, COVID-19 complicates the picture theconversation.com/as-the-malaria… via @TC_Africa

Perhaps some news that is not the worst! There is so much we still don't know. @HopeHealingIntl stays in touch with its partners to know what they are seeing. Are warnings of a COVID-19 famine in Africa overblown?: thenewhumanitarian.org/special-report… (@newhumanitarian)
