Minister of Health, Jonas Chanda says the country has continued to record reduced numbers of COVID-19 admission cases.
Dr Chanda said the cases are improving from statistical highs of 510 cases per day at the peak of the second wave of the pandemic in January 2021 to as low as 183 cases today.
He however, said majority of those admitted are critically ill, and emphasized that this is a reflection of the circumstances in communities and the need to keep observing COVID-19 preventive measures.
“COVID-19 situation update for the last 24 hours is as follows: We recorded 234 new cases out of 3,090 tests conducted. The new cases reported by province are broken down as follows: 120 Lusaka, 44 Copperbelt, 33 Luapula, 23 Eastern, 6 Northern, 6 Southern and 2 North-western. There were no cases reported from Central, Muchinga and Western provinces. This brings the cumulative number of confirmed cases recorded to 82, 655,” he said.
The National Health Insurance Management Authority (NHIMA) has collected about K800 million as contributions from members since inception in October 2019.
NHIMA Director of Finance, David Kongwa said the authority has continued to record an upward trend in collections from K30 million per month in October 2019 to currently over K50 million per month.
Mr Kongwa said NHIMA has invested part of the funds in short-term instruments in the money market such as Treasury bills and fixed deposits to increase liquidity for the Authority.
ZANIS reports that Mr Kongwa was speaking at the signing of the partnership agreement between NHIMA and ZANACO in Lusaka today that will see the Bank incorporated on the NHIMA digital platform to facilitate payments of contributions to the NHIMA.
