Wapampando wa mgwirizanowu, Maziko Matemba, wati ukamberemberewu ndi chiphe kaamba koti anthu otere sachedwa kugwidwa ndi chipwirikiti cha matenda chifukwa chitetezo cha m’thupi mwawo chimatsika msanga.

Matemba adati kupatula kutsika kwa chitetezo cha m’thupi, anthu omwe amati kuyamba kumwa mankhwalawa n’kudukiza thupi lawo limapima kotero kuti silimvanso mankhwala alionse omwe angalandire akamva.

“Tili ndi nkhawa yaikulu kwambiri chifukwa anthu otere ndiwo amabwezeretsa chitukuko cha dziko mmbuyo. Boma likuyesetsa kugula mankhwala kuti anthu ake azikhala nthawi yaitali ali ndi thanzi, koma iwo n’kumathawanso, komwe kuli kusayamika,” adatero Matemba.

Iye adati abambo ambiri komanso omwe amakhala m’matauni ndiwo akuchulukira kuzemba mankhwalawa kaamba ka manyazi, kuiwala kuti ali ndi udindo pamabanja awo ndi dziko lomwe.

“Chiopsezo chachikulu chili poti munthu yemwe sakulandira mankhwala ndiye ali n’kuthekera kwakukulu kofalitsa kachilombo ndiye ngati achinyamata akuzemba, zikutanthauza kuti tikulimbana ndi nkhondo yomwe tikumenyananso tokhatokha,” adatero Dzimadzi.

Nduna ya zaumoyo, Dr Peter Kumpalume, akuti nkhaniyi ndi yomvetsa chisoni kaamba kakuti boma limafunitsitsa vutoli litatheratu m’dziko muno poti ena mwa anthu omwe dziko limataya chifukwa cha vutoli ndi ofunika mipando yautsogoleri.

Anthu ena auza Tamvani kuti nthawi zina anthu amazemba kukalandira mankhwala kaamba ka momwe amalandiridwira kuchipatala, koma unduna wa zaumoyo ndi bungwe la Manaso ati chifukwa ichi n’chozizira polingalira za moyo wa munthu.

“Mpofunika kuunika nkhani ya chinsinsi cha odwala chifukwa ena safuna kuonekera koma ali ndi mtima wofuna kumalandira thandizo. China ndi malankhulidwe a ogwira ntchito kuchipatala omwe amagwetsa anthu ulesi,” adatero Lucy Banda, wapampando wa gulu lophunzitsa ndi kuyendera anthu omwe ali ndi kachilombo ka HIV ku Senga Bay, komwe akuti abambo ambiri amazemba kulandira mankhwalawa n’kumatangwanika ndi usodzi.

Woyang’anira nkhani za umoyo muunduna wa zaumoyo, Dr Charles Mwansambo, wati ichi n’chimodzi mwa zifukwa zomwe boma, kudzera muundunawu, lidakhazikitsa pologalamu yoti kuchipatala kuzikhala malo apadera oti anthu azikalandirirako uphungu pankhani za Edzi ndi mankhwala otalikitsa moyo.
