Malawi closes all land borders for two weeks to fight the rising cases of Covid-19!

Malawi's Presidential Task Force on Covid-19 yesterday (22 December 2020) announced that for the next two weeks (until 06 January 2021?), all of Malawi's land borders are closed except for "essential services". According to the country's Minister of Health, Khumbite Kandodo Chiponda, Malawi allows the entry of deported Malawians from mainly South Africa and those who left the country for business-related reasons. The international airports in Malawi remain open with more strict measures to ensure that all people flying in are Covid-19 negative. Public gatherings in Malawi, such as religious gatherings or football matches, have also been restricted to a maximum of 100 people for the next 2 weeks.
