    ZIMBABWE NATIONAL AND SUB-NATIONAL HIV ESTIMATES REPORT 2017 AIDS & TB PROGRAMME MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND CHILD CARE July 2018 Foreword The Ministry of Health and Child Care (MOHCC) in collaboration with National AIDS Council (NAC) and support from partners, produced the Zimbabwe 2017 National, Provincial and District HIV and AIDS Estimates. The UNAIDS, Avenir Health and NAC continued to provide technical assistance and training in order to build national capacity to produce sub-national estimates in order to track the epidemic. The 2017 Estimates report gives estimates for the impact of the programme. It provide an update of the HIV and AIDS estimates and projections, which include HIV prevalence and incidence, programme coverages, AIDS-related deaths and orphans, pregnant women in need of PMTCT services in the country based on the Spectrum Model version 5.63. The 2017 Estimates report will assist the country to monitor progress towards the fast track targets by outlining programme coverage and possible gaps. This report will assist programme managers in accounting for efforts in the national response and policy makers in planning and resource mobilization. Brigadier General (Dr.) G. Gwinji Permanent Secretary for Health and Child Care Page | i Acknowledgements The Ministry of Health and Child Care (MOHCC) would want to acknowledge effort from all individuals and organizations that contributed to the production of these estimates and projections.

  • “Operation Murambatsvina”
    AN IN -DEPTH STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF OPERATION MUR AMBATSVINA/RESTORE ORDER IN ZIMBABWE “Primum non Nocere”: The traumatic consequences of “Operation Murambatsvina”. ActionAid International in collaboration with the Counselling Services Unit (CSU), Combined Harare Residents’ Association (CHRA) and the Zimbabwe Peace Project (ZPP) Novemberi 2005 PREFACE The right to govern is premised upon the duty to protect the governed: governments are elected to provide for the security of their citizens, that is, to promote and protect the physical and livelihood security of their citizens. In return for such security the citizens agree to surrender the powers to govern themselves by electing representatives to govern them. This is the moral contract between those who govern and those who are governed. For any government to knowingly and deliberately undermine the security of its citizens is a breach of this contract and the principle of democracy. Indeed, it removes the very foundation upon which the legitimacy of government is based. Just as there is an injunction upon health workers not to harm their patients - ‘primum non nocere”, “first do no harm” - so there must be an injunction upon governments that they ensure that any action that they take or policy that they implement will not be harmful. This is the very reason why there was formed in 2001 the International Commission on Intervention and State Sovereignty of the United Nations promulgating the “Responsibility to Protect”: States have an obligation to protect their citizens, and the international community has an obligation to intervene when it is evident that a state cannot or will not protect its people.

  • Effect of Distribution of Educational Material to Mothers on Duration And
    Gabida et al. International Breastfeeding Journal (2015) 10:13 DOI 10.1186/s13006-015-0037-6 RESEARCH Open Access Effect of distribution of educational material to mothers on duration and severity of diarrhoea and pneumonia, Midlands Province, Zimbabwe: a cluster randomized controlled trial Meggie Gabida1, Milton Chemhuru2, Mufuta Tshimanga1, Notion T Gombe1, Lucia Takundwa1 and Donewell Bangure1* Abstract Background: Exclusive breastfeeding rates remain low in most countries in sub-Saharan Africa. We assessed the effects of a mother-based intervention on duration of diarrhoea and pneumonia in communities that were trained and those not trained in community infant and young child feeding (cIYCF) in Midlands Province, Zimbabwe. Methods: We evaluated communities with village health workers who received training in cIYCF and the distribution of educational materials (newsletter) to mothers in promotion of exclusive breastfeeding using a two-by-two factorial cluster randomized controlled trial. The trial arms included clusters trained in cIYCF only, clusters with mothers that received a newsletter only, clusters that received both interventions and clusters receiving no intervention. Consenting mother-infant pairs identified within 72 hours of delivery were followed up at 14 and 20 weeks where duration of diarrhoea and pneumonia as well as severity of diarrhoea was assessed. Clusters were facility catchment areas assigned by an independent statistician using randomization generated by a computer using Stata 10. All admitting facilities and facilities at borders were excluded as buffer zones and eight clusters were analysed. Nutritionists who collected data were not aware of the hypothesis being tested and analysis was by intention-to-treat. Results: A total of 357 mother-infant pairs were available for analysis in all the clusters.
