The Society of Medical Doctors is worried with continued mistreatment of health care workers by some guardians of Covid-19 patients.

SMD President, Victor Mgonjetsi Mithi, has dismissed rumours orchastrating abuse of health workers which include allegations that some health workers are mistreating patients and removing genetalia of those dying of Covid 19.

Dr. Mithi says it is important that Malawians work together with health workers in the war against the Coronavirus pandemic.

This has come out at a joint press briefing co-organised by the Medical Council of Malawi, Medical Doctors Union of Malawi, Women Doctors Association of Malawi, Medical Association of Malawi and the Society of Medical Doctos-SMD.

On the emerging controversy surrounding the AstraZeneca vaccine, the health workers say are monitoring trends on efficacy and would help make recommendation at a later stage.
