摘要

津巴布韦和许多其他撒哈拉以南非洲国家一样,一直在努力提供高质量的医疗服务。腐败猖獗、官僚机构效率低下的国家雪上加霜,应对2019冠状病毒病新冠肺炎。尽管津巴布韦政府与世界卫生组织、世界卫生组织等国际机构制定了有效应对新冠肺炎的协议,但由于缺乏个人防护设备、药品和基本设备、肆意腐败行为以及工作人员短缺,卫生系统已经捉襟见肘。及时交付订单仍然是一个挑战,因为在运输货物时采取了严格的官僚措施,而且国家之间存在竞争。制造商和捐助者正在将重点转移到本国,这使得津巴布韦的医疗服务资金不足,资源不足。然而,在经历的挑战中,该国有机会重新审视其优先事项,并制定政府和组织如何最好地运输基本医疗产品,利用ACFTA、非洲大陆自由贸易区和当地药品制造商等现行贸易协议生产基本药品的战略。启动一个有效的机制来结束采购和供应方面的腐败行为,并改善机构间合作和沟通,可能有助于改善津巴布韦结束新冠肺炎的努力。

Impact of COVID-19 on Supply Chains in Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe like many other sub-Saharan African states has been struggling to provide a quality health service delivery system. Nations with rampant corruption and ineffective bureaucracy made worse, the response towards the fight against COVID-19, Coronavirus Disease 2019. Despite the Zimbabwean government setting out protocols with international agencies such as WHO, World Health Organization to mount an effective response against COVID-19, the health system has been overstretched with lack of personal protective equipment, shortage of drugs and essential equipment and wanton corruption practices coupled with shortage of staff. Timely delivery of orders is still a challenge due to strict bureaucratic measures when transporting goods and the existing competition between countries. Manufacturers and donors are shifting their focus to their countries leaving the Zimbabwean health service underfunded and under-resourced. However, among the challenges experienced the country has been given a chance to revisit its priorities and strategize how best the government and organizations can move essential medical goods, utilize current trade agreements such as ACFTA, African Continental Free Trade Area and local drug manufacturers to produce essential medicines. Launching an efficient mechanism to end corrupt practices in procurement and supply as well as improve interagency cooperation and communication may help improve efforts to end COVID-19 in Zimbabwe.
