Africa Health Exhibition 2019. Africa ikukumana ndi zovuta zazikulu paumoyo. Makumi atatu mphambu asanu ndi limodzi mwa anthu amakhala pa ndalama zosakwana dola imodzi patsiku. Kontinentiyo ili ndi 14 peresenti ya anthu padziko lonse lapansi, komabe, ndi 3% yokha ya ogwira ntchito zazaumoyo padziko lonse lapansi.

Kukula kwa anthu ndikofunika. Africa imanyamula 25% ya mavuto padziko lonse lapansi ndipo yakhala ndi chiwonjezeko cha 20% cha matenda osapatsirana (NCDs) pakati pa 2010 ndi 2020. Ndi 30% yokha mwa anthu aku Africa omwe ali ndi mwayi wopeza chithandizo chamankhwala choyambirira. Poyang'anizana ndi zopinga zambirizi, mabungwe aboma amakhala othandizira pakufulumira.

Monga injini ya kukula, magulu apadera amapereka njira zatsopano komanso zogwirira ntchito zomwe zapangidwira makamaka za chikhalidwe cha Afirika. Amalonda, mosiyana ndi maboma ndi opereka ndalama, amakonda kuyang'ana momwe zinthu zingakhalire, mmalo mopitirizabe kukhala mu bureaucracy ndi ndondomeko ya momwe zinthu zilili tsopano. Mwachidziwikire, magulu aumwini kawirikawiri amadziwa bwino kwambiri zomwe zosowa zenizeni za makasitomala awo, kutanthauza kuti nthawi zambiri amakhala okonzekera bwino kuti athetse zosowa zawo.

Kuonjezera apo, chitukuko chayekha pa umoyo chimawonjezeka, osati pazinthu zothandizira zaumoyo omwe akhala akudziwika ndi iwo, monga kupanga mankhwala. Chikoka chawo chikudula, chikukhudza mafakitale aliwonse mu gawo lachipatala. Pokhudzana ndi zopereka zapadera, zomwe zakhala zikuchitika m'mbuyomu zakhala zikugwiritsidwa ntchito pazokha, koma maganizo awa satha, ndipo pafupifupi theka la anthu aku Africa tsopano akulandira thandizo lachipatala kuchokera kuzipatala zamagulu.

Imodzi mwazitsulo zazikulu zopezera chithandizo chamankhwala abwino ndizovuta zopezeka. Pakhoza kukhala khalidwe ntchito zothandizira zaumoyo zilipo, koma mtengo ukhoza kukhala wosayenera kwa anthu ambiri. Makampani apadera ali ndi malo ochulukirapo m'dera lino. Anthu ambiri padziko lonse lapansi ayenera kulipira m'thumba kuti azitha kulandira chithandizo, nthawi zambiri kumabweretsa mabanja onse akusowa umphawi. Sudan ili ndi ndalama zochepa zogwiritsira ntchito zaumoyo wa 74 peresenti, zapamwamba kwambiri ku continent. Zolinga zamakono zimafunikira kuthetsa mavuto ovuta kwambiri, ndipo ngakhale kuti boma liyenera kukhala ndi udindo wotsogolera anthu osauka kwambiri, magulu apadera akuyikidwa bwino kuti apange ndi kukhazikitsa njira zothetsera thanzi lazinthu zambiri chiwerengero.

Madera omwe zipatala zachinsinsi zimakula kwambiri ndizoluso. Kaya ndi yopanga zamankhwala zida ndipo amapereka, kugwiritsira ntchito zipangizo zamakono zomwe zilipo kale (monga mafoni) ndikuzigwiritsa ntchito kuchipatala, kapena kupanga zochitika pogwiritsa ntchito blockchain mu kayendetsedwe ka data, mabungwe apadera akutsogolera ndikupititsa patsogolo chithandizo chachipatala mofulumira. Ndi luso lamakono, Africa ili ndi mwayi wotsutsa zigawo zomwe zakula bwino. Mwachitsanzo, kupeŵa kufunika kwa njira zogwirira ntchito pamsewu mwa kupereka magazi kapena mankhwala ndi drone. Kapena kugwiritsa ntchito zipangizo zamakono zogwiritsira ntchito foni kuti mugwirizane ndi dokotala ku London ndi katswiri wa X ray kumidzi yaku Uganda. Kupititsa patsogolo zamakonozi kudzawonjezereka khalidwe ndi kuchepetsa ndalama.

The zachinsinsi Komanso ali ndi gawo lomwe lingathandize pakusintha Africa kuchokera ku chithandizo choletsa kuchipatala pofuna kupewa chithandizo chamankhwala. Chifukwa cha kuchuluka kwa chiwerengero cha matenda omwe akugwera pansi pa magulu a NCD ndi matenda opewera, chipatala chayekha, pamodzi ndi magulu othandizana nawo (monga momwe amachitira ndi ma TV ndi maphunziro), akhoza kusintha kusintha kwa makhalidwe omwe adzathandize anthu a ku Africa mtsogolo kukhala ndi thanzi labwino, komanso opindulitsa kwambiri.

Ngakhale kuti maiko ambiri akukumana ndi vutoli, ngati mabungwe ogwira ntchito ndi ogwira ntchito payekha angapindule ndi zomwe aliyense amachita bwino, kuthandizana komanso kugwira ntchito, pali zifukwa zambiri zokhulupirira za tsogolo la chithandizo chamankhwala ku Africa. Ngati chiwerengero cha achinyamata cha Africa chikhoza kukhalabe ndi thanzi labwino ndikupitiriza kuwonjezera chuma, titha kuona kukula kotere kumadera onse a anthu. Zigawo zapadera zimapereka zambiri, koma zidzatenga malo ogwira ntchito komanso mabungwe amphamvu ochokera m'mabungwe apadera.

Dziwani zambiri zokhudza tsogolo la thanzi Africa Health Exhibition 2019.
