  1. Malawi has beaten the virus with zero hospitalizations. Whoever has given the Malawi gov’t money should take their money and ruuuuuunnnnn before it’s all gone by these m’fuckers. Especially now that they know they will be out of government after July 2nd, eeeeeish! I see them using every opportunity to clean out the government money. Prince of Thieves is so quiet. Is he also recovering from Covid 19?

  2. Hahahahah! Now the truth is coming out. I will believe the health proffesionals than the politicians. No COVID 19 Cases in Malawi. Let’s keep on using the sanitizers.

  3. In short,if no one has come open to say yes am suffering from covid-19.Then know that these government leaders have cooked the story.Because they believe that Malawians will buy it.I believe there is no convid-19 in Malawi.If there is then please people should come out and speak that they really suffering from coronavirus.Remember may fellow Malawians, politics is science and science needs people to think. So those politicians they thought in that way and make plans to convince the citizens about the desease. In politics people lie too much and they keep telling people about their lies more often until people start to believe. A DPP agwidwa.Ndimomwe amanamizira anthu wonse a dziko lapansi Kut chisankho chija anawina mwa clean and clear.Koma there was tippex.I don’t believe their story.

  4. Very encouraging report but let’s not relent in observing the recommended measures to fight this pandemic.
    Just to emphasize that the Committee on Covid 19 should be inclusive of other members of society and not partisan as it is now where members agree on anything for fear of possible reprisals.
    I am sure we can defeat the scourge if we think and work as a Nation and not as politicians.

  5. That’s why we are saying all along that u were lying to the nation and entire world that Malawi has Coviid 19 Patients.

    Malawi as it stands right now has not registered Coviid 19 Patients but once u lock down the nation then it’s when the government will import Coviid 19 and people will start dying thats the Conspiracy behind Coronavirus or Coviid 19.

    I pray that the Court after 7days should suspend the Lock down further till investigation has been taken about the so called Coviid 19 Patients where about .

    Don’t sacrify innocent poor Malawians to your Conspiracy theorem, Malawi is a God fearing nation and it’s Only the Almighty God is protecting us from these evil plan by the triple 6 team.
    Time is not yet in for Malawi and God is in control , so leave my poor nation alone.

  6. A lot of ignorance in most comments below. The USA has about 800, 000 covid cases. Only a proportion of that is in hospital and a percentage of that need ventilator. In the UK, Prime Minister Johnson was hospitalised and yet some of his ministers just stayed home and recovered.

  7. LOL!!!!! “To flatten the infection curve”. Mhango, chonde siyani copying language ya ena without knowing where to use it. The infection rate in Malawi is no where from peaking to be talking about flattening the curve.

  8. What about those two who died, were they well enough not to need hospital too, or the fact is that we don’t have intensive care beds to take care of these covid cases?

    1. Told one is a Burundian who died in two days time after his arrival in Malawi from Canada was a second death of the so called covid19 and the first death is an Indian born based in Malawi others they speaks her death was far from covid19 . My question is how did the Burundian traveled all the way from Canada with the corona virus to visit his family in Malawi and found positive on his arrival at the airport? could be a silly question.

  9. I can sense some thing , there is no. Covid-19′ in. Malawi but those so. Called leaders​ they are greed so they cooked up the the the story to the country and to the whole world

    1. Covid19 is real but in our case in Malawi we have different information given we never know. Only the doctors can convince you of that information given to the nation.

  10. Do we have to let these people go out there and infect more people? How did we manage these people from the day they were confirmed positive? Where did we keep them to monitor their progress? We hear in other countries these people are quarantined. It is confusing how these people have been managed here in Malawi. Scared.

  11. So, So, So,..Mumalamula Lockdown Kuchipatala Kulibe Odwala Covid-19 Olo Ndimmozi Yemwe.,,,mukutitenga Amalawife Ngat Agwape!!!

  12. This is good news to most of us, except for the DPP/UDF, who were hoping to capitalize on the unfortunate events.

  13. So there is no need to panic, let’s continue registration so that we smash these bastards once for all.
    Full scale Baba!

    1. No no no. That virus is deadly and infectious still. That’s why 2 people have died. A lot if people recover without needing hospital treatment.

  14. Abale munthu odwala coronavirus amakhalanso well? Mene tikuonera pa tv mayiko ena ma patient kunzunzika nde onse abwere kunotu. Anthu a boma akutitola kwambiri mpaka a prof doctor kuyankhula chonchi

    1. Umbuli at it’s best. Corona-virus affects people differently. Many people get well without hospital treatment. But some become critically I’ll and die.

      1. Umbuli at it’s best? Mbuli ndinuyo mukufuna koronanu. Anyone can become critically ill and die even without sickness can die. Don’t lie to us Malawi there is no corona so far.

  15. mwasowa umboni wochitira lockdown now you’re like clearing the lies you told us about the fake infected people. you cheated them and all of us and the whole world heard your lies aloud. you cheaters, you’re now being exposed little by little. fools.

  16. “The ministry of health however has appealed to people to continue abiding by the social distancing and hygiene rules to flatten the curve of infection.”
    .
    Why is the Ministry appealing to us using the Greek language? We villagers have never heard of this curve of infection? If we find one, can we sit on it to flatten it, or will it bite us on the bum?

    1. Let the worst coronavirus hit you or a member of your family that’s when you will know. Check the news and see pictures in the USA, UK, and rest of Europe.

      1. USA UK and rest Europe are you ok? Or you are crazy? This is Malawi. We are talking of Malawi that there is no corona not your USA UK and your rest of Europe

    1. Many people who Get Corona will recover without Hospitalisation ( underlying Health Conditions and age are a factor)….I wish the Doctors were in the Forefront in dissiminating the Corona Messages not Politicians …..atotiuza ngati kuti ukadwala Corona Basi kwako kwatha ….That’s why ma landlord Ena athothamangisa achipatala mnyumba Zao ati akatowapasira Corona Basi afa….Which is not True…
