Zimbabwes economy is in ruins. Disease runs rampant. The public health system has collapsed. Private health care is all that remains, and in a country where many workers make less than $1 per month, a simple medical consultation starts at $200  thats more than 15 years of income for most! In our new video, PHR examines how Zimbabwes economic crisis has shattered a once-strong health system.
