The government of Botswana has declared a national health emergency following severe shortages of essential medicines across the country. Hospitals and clinics are reportedly struggling to provide adequate treatment, leaving patients vulnerable and healthcare workers overwhelmed.
Authorities say the shortages are linked to supply chain disruptions and procurement delays, which have hindered the availability of vital drugs. The Ministry of Health has assured citizens that measures are being taken to stabilize supplies and restore confidence in the health system.
The crisis has sparked concern among citizens and health experts, with calls for urgent intervention to prevent further deterioration of medical services.
