Covid-19 spreads through droplets from the mouth and nose that spread to surfaces through coughing or sneezing.

As a precaution, the Ministry of Health and Population encourages people to practice hygiene such as frequent hand washing or sanitising, avoid handshakes and always wear face masks and gloves where available.

Currently, there is no recorded case of Covid-19 in Malawi, but neighbouring countries Tanzania, Mozambique and Zambia have registered some cases.
