National
Malaria Elimination Program Epidemiologist Busiku Amainza has said that
southern African countries including Zambia have seen drastic declines in malaria cases in 2017.
Dr.
Amainza has told Alf News Blog in an interview that the countries have made steady
progress in conducting research towards
malaria prevention in the southern region.
Dr.
Amainza however states that countries in the southern region should be very
careful as the declines may not be
permanent.
He
however states that Zambia as a country is doing well in malaria prevention but
should not lose focus until total elimination of the epidemic is achieved.
Dr.
Amainza has since advised government to
invest more in more research mechanisms
to mitigate any more chances of the
epidemic.
