– Zimbabwe has adequate stocks of
anti-retroviral drugs (ARVs) that will last until the first quarter of
next year, Health and Child Care Minister, Dr Obadiah Moyo said on
Wednesday, allaying fears of a possible shortage.
Zimbabwe has an estimated one million people who are on the
life-prolonging drugs given to people living with HIV, to keep the
