DODOMA, TANZANIA - Tanzania’s government insists there are no cases of COVID-19 in the country, but residents and doctors point to a growing number of illnesses and deaths. Doctors told her family she died of pneumonia, but Tully’s father Nasa Kiwanga believes his daughter died of COVID-19. According to a doctor who asked not to be identified, Kiwanga is correct – his daughter died of COVID-19. But a few weeks ago, the U.S. Embassy in Tanzania warned that COVID-19 cases have risen considerably in the country since January. Tanzania’s health ministry has touted the use of traditional medicine in the fight against COVID-19 and other diseases.
