Tanzanian doctors sound alarm over hidden coronavirus cases...‘Corona is considered a security issue, not a public health issue’


Arusha, Tanzania - Omari*, a motorcycle taxi driver, stopped outside a house in Arusha City, a tourist hub in northern Tanzania and pointed to a large, grey gate.

"A person here died from COVID a few days ago," he said, before starting up his engine again and continuing down the city's pothole-riddled dirt roads.

He slowed down at another house and loudly mumbled through his blue protective mask: "The father here drives the bus between Arusha and Dar es Salaam. He picked up COVID in Dar and he died about a week ago.

"This is becoming very serious," he added. "This disease is killing a lot of people."
