    The Wider Image: In Africa’s monkeypox outbreak, sickness and death

    Theopiste Maloko, 42, a local health official, transports skin samples from the Yalolia health centre to Kisangani by motorcycle, in Tshopo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, October 3, 2022. To avoid spoiling, samples need to be kept cold and reach a laboratory within 48 hours, but they often do not, he said. The nearest testing lab is in Kinshasa, and results take weeks or months. "We are suffering. This is really our cry of alarm. We are raising our voices so that someone will hear," said Maloko. REUTERS/Arlette Bashizi

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
