I think I figured out Maghufuli... He says one thing and people assume he means what you think he means. He is not a madman. The devil is in the details. Look
Maghufuli Opens up the country for tourism - no Quarantine. All tourist hotels, restaurants, and bars in Zanzibar are open. Yes...
Guess what is being implemented in reality:
all visitors are required to comply with laid down regulations by the government INCLUDING adducing certification that they are COVID-free. The government will screen every visitor entering Tanzania and has already designated isolation centers to hold those who may show COVID-19 symptoms. Here, they will undergo comprehensive tests if they are suspected of having Covid. They will be required to fill in traveler's surveillance forms at port of entries. they are required to adhere to infection prevention control measures e.g. hand washing, wearing masks and physical distancing.

Universities and other institutions of learning resumed teaching and learning activities with strict guidelines.


As far as hospitalization is concerned - they send people home... ukifa - kufa nyumbani. No people with PPE burying you. Those that get sick - get sick. those who recover -recover.

Yawa!

The mystery about Covid-19 is that common wananchi have not witnessed its horrors thus far. I bet most wazuans have witnessed the agony/horrors of say malaria(fever, baridi-joto,nightmares,stiff neck,death), and other diseases as tb,HIV/AIDS etc atleast once in their lifetimes but very few know how the critically-ill covid19 patient looks like. I myself have not seen with my own eyes how a critically ill covid19 patient looks like but has seen a cholera patient and a malaria patient and a pneumonia patient, tb patient, snakebite patient etc . I think if wananchi knew the pain and suffering covid19 can do to a patient then i think 90% of population would adhere to government regulations.

If it is true that covid19 has killed hundreds of thousands in the "mighty" US of A, and others like "Great" Britain and China then i think our worst is not yet here.

Looking at the official numbers given by MOH/Kagwe, it is obvious the numbers are growing. Whether our infection numbers will hit hundreds of thousands like in USA remains to be seen. Most scary is whether Kenyans will start dying 1000 per day like in other jurisdictions as we have seen in news media.

Relax. The world is not ending soon. The human genome has survived thousands of pathogens over the ages and will survive hii homa ya corona.

I say - social distance, wash hands, wear masks, stay at home when you can. @mpobiz recommends that you go lick every pole in sight.
