Herbal Medicine, Diabetes Care at Primary Care Facilities and Prevention of Vertical HIV Transmission

Abstract

In this September 2021 issue of the Malawi Medical Journal, three articles which attracted my attention are those by Mbali et al, Zimba et al, and Pfaff et al. Perhaps as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal, I should endeavor to be impartial and “love” all the articles the same. This time however, I have selected
these articles because they touch on important health issues in Malawi, with Mbali et al, reporting on the use of herbal medicines among individuals living with HIV and receiving life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART).
