Health authorities in Niassa province are worried at the increase in deaths from malaria. In the first three months of this year, the province recorded 40 deaths from the disease.
The figure represents an increase of around 29% compared to the same period last year, when around 109,000 cases and 34 deaths were recorded.
Director of the Provincial Health Service, José Manuel, said that the provincial government was developing a strategic plan for the distribution of mosquito nets, with a view to reducing the number of cases.
Manuel was speaking this Wednesday at the sixth ordinary session of the Council and State Representation Service.
