Hongereni sana IHI kupitia Shinda Malaria project.
Such an important topic; and an expert, Dr. Finda, to discuss it. Unfortunately, the recording quality is very low, and viewers may not watch this for long. Please try and raise the quality of the recording and editing process. Thank you.
Thank you for the valuable feedback. We will definitely keep that in mind for future sessions.

Pyrethroids resistance one of most challenging issues for malaria control, going deeply to sove the problem (in other insects) I have some sollutions.
Thank you very much Fredros, Sheila and Nana - this is an amazing conversation that you put together
Thanks for sharing this important video involving such bold scientists in the area. But, how can I access to the invitation to participate in similar events for future?
Thanks for sharing!
Heee be
I am so impressed with the government commitment to improve care to newborns. It is time now for all stakeholders to learn from NEST and scale up this approach. Let us stick together and move with common velocity towards achieving SDG target.
Me encanto el máster class.
This got me thinking 💭 I was previously told that by my ex girlfriend who happened to be HIV-positive but I brutally opposed. I later ended my relationship with her due to this fact. Thank you Ifakara Health Institute for the light.
If you think about it. Its better having a faithful partner that is open about her status and ready to protect you by making sure she takes her medication, rather than being with a partner with an unknown status or a HIV negative unfaithful partner, thus a higher risk of probably being infected.
@@criticmkweli I agree 👍

Good, thanks Fredros
This is so inspiring
Courage à vous
Thank you 4 such a masterclass 😊. Greetings from Angola.
