The recent cancellation of the N$650 million clinical supply tender of the Ministry of Health and Social Services has negatively impacted the supply of medicines, beds, and equipment in state hospitals and clinics. 

The Minister of Health and Social Service Dr. Kalumbi Shangula said this during a visit to health facilities in the Otjozondjupa Region this week, following concerns of shortages of supplies.

A visit to health facilities in the region revealed common complaints by medical staff.
