Experts urge proper disposal of face masks
President of Malawi Environmental Health Association, Elias Chimulambe, says the trend if left unchecked will fuel further transmission of coronavirus.
“We need to properly dispose the used masks otherwise we will lose the battle against the spread of coronavirus,” said Chimulambe.
On his part, an environmental expert Godfrey Mfiti said disposing off masks anyhow has potential of polluting our already degraded environment.
“These masks do not decompose if thrown anyhow and there is need to sensitize masses on the harm they make to our environment particularly the soil,” said Mfiti.
On the other hand, environmental rights activist Elias Chimulambe who is also president of Association of Environmental Journalists in Malawi has recommended use of re-usable masks other than disposable ones.
“We just need to check with scientists and health experts on effectiveness of cotton masks (that can be used more than once) in prevention of the spread of coronavirus,” said Malata.
Experts say face masks combined with other preventive measures, such as frequent hand-washing and social distancing, help slow the spread of the disease.

Dancers grated to every true so long it touched on the much-touted alliance.

It is envisioned that the alliance will transform malawi, so do not blame the rising tides of expectaions. Setting the tone on the expected benefits was the president himself, saying his administration will continue with development projects started previously such as building roads and schools among others.
In-fact, most people interviwed on the alliance were of the view that the combination of te two was the best and mature.
The Lilongwe-based academician Jonathan Mulosowa said he was convinced that the alliance have all the ingredients one would need to have in presidency.
“ This is the only qualified candidates among the hopefuls. They are well-versed with the mechanics of running a government because of their education, talents, depth, exposure and experience,” he said.

Fatchi said the delay by the opposition alliance to unveil its torchbeare indicated that there was repositioning and power struggle within the alliance.
“ The DPP/UDF alliance is a winning and development conscious team unlike the other alliance which is full of recycled, power hungry, visionless, selfish leadership from immoral intentions and without tangible development agendas. The alliance cannot take long to last,” he said.
“ Before endorsing Atupeles’ candidature, the president looked at his calibre, experience, talents, leadership skills among others. Mutharika himself is a coool headed leader who has not negatively emotional,” added Fatchi.
Atupele has been a minister for long time. In the PP government before seving DPP government as a minister of health, lands, justice, economic planning, energy among other portfolios.
