Debate has ensued over the viability of self-testing for Covid-19 with health rights advocates doubting the viability of the exercise.
Reports indicate the World Health Organisation has recommended self-testing for Covid-19.
Earlier a public health expert, Dr. Augustine Choko had said the findings were important as they will allow government to concentrate on other things.
However, one health rights campaigner George Jobe has doubted the adherence of the exercise saying for it to succeed there’s a lot to be done.
Speaking to MIJ Online, Jobe said a lot like counselling and data collection needed to be addressed before the roll-out for people to appreciate the essence of this exercise.
