His Excellency, Dr Lazarus Chakwera, President of the republic of Malawi, together with @health_malawi@MinOfEducation met with @KUHeS_mw council and management at Kamuzu Palace where the council presented a plan to construct Kamuzu University teaching hospital (KUTH)
The team behind @KUHeS_mw 's SARS-CoV-2 infection, transmission and household impact in Malawi Study (SCATHIM). A fruitful discussion on dissemination of results from this multidisciplinary study. It has all kinds of disciplines which adds flavor to overall findings.
