A few years ago, I worked with a think tank advising the Ethiopian GVT, as we did for GVTs like SA & Namibia.

In my work, I noticed that, this may shock you, Zimbabwe exports more than Ethiopia (which has a 127 million population)

My point: Zimbabwe has no shortage of forex.

We must be honest with ourselves on the predicament of the ZiG.

Why did it take so long for @ReserveBankZIM @percyconsult, @MthuliNcube01 @GGuvamatanga to act until they’d to make a ~70% devaluation which sends a bad signal?

This is playing with people’s lives.

Stop bleaching your rich skin in the name of toning, fading, glowing, colouring, exfoliating, or skin care. Stop it!

@drruwende Can you get infected after having unprotected sex with a person who has a false negative?

@SundayNewsZimba Another day another murder. What's wrong with this country?

Antibiotics e.g amoxicillin 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁 treat flu, please!

Taking antibiotics for flu, does more harm than good- bacterial resistance.

Bacterial resistance, AMR, is top 10 global public health threats currently facing humanity.

Its not just washing hands, 𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙨𝙤𝙖𝙥 𝙞𝙨 𝙖 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩, to remove the cholera bacteria.

Wash your hands:
●Before, during, and after preparing food.
●Before and after eating food or feeding your children.
●After using the toilet.
●After cleaning your child’s bottom
●After taking care of someone who is sick with diarrhea.

Note: Do not underestimate washing of hands, its a key measure of preventing cholera at household level.

[Dr. Misheck Ruwende @drruwende]

Cholera prevention.

●Use bottled water to drink, brush your teeth, wash and prepare food.
●If not available, treat the water with chlorine products.
●If not available, boil the water.

Point is, be sure you drink and use safe water.

1. Alcohol has 0 health benefit.
2. No level of alcohol consumption is safe for your health.
3. There's nothing like "drink responsibly", they just want the money.
4. Alcohol only makes people poorer, dumber, fatter, and sicker.
5. Change for your own good.
Repost: for others.

According to Masvingo Council's Medical Doctor, Kambucha drink has alcohol😂, makes sense?

[First Doctor @FirstDoctor]

Drink a glass of water first thing this morning. To remind others, repost.

Education is very necessary, not degrees, just "O" level makes a big difference in one's life.

I'm talking about as far as health is concerned:teenage pregnancies, early marriages, early STIs including HIV, cervical cancers, poor baby care, poor health seeking behavior, etc.

In many many studies, the less educated one is, the higher their risk of being a victim of the above.

Danger of "Googling" symptoms/self diagnosing, protect yourself from this morden "illness", Cyberchondria.

Cyberchondria is when searching the internet for medical information leads to extreme health anxiety.

Symptoms:
• You spend at least 1 to 3 hours researching your symptoms online.
• Your online searches make you feel distressed and anxious, rather than reassured or empowered.
• Your need to search for health information feels compulsive and hard to resist.
• You’re afraid of having several diseases, not just one or two.
• You feel a need to seek reassurance from a doctor or medical professional.
• You distrust the answer you get from a medical professional.
• You feel a compulsive need to recheck your symptoms online, even after doing exhaustive searches before. On some days, you might recheck your symptoms four or five times, or more.

It’s worth noting, however, that it might be difficult for you to recognize cyberchondria in yourself because of the way anxiety works and impacts your thinking patterns. It might be easier for a friend, family member, or a healthcare professional to recognize it in someone else.

My encourage is to "Google" after seeing your doctor.
