Zimbabwe: Transaction tax causing a cash crisis
Zimbabwe’s attempt to revive the economy makes matters worse for its struggling health system.
The International Monetary Fund and World Bank have approved plans for Zimbabwe to pay back more than $2bn in debt, a vital step to secure new loans to revive the economy.
The government recently imposed a tax on bank transactions that has been blamed for raising prices and causing shortages, severely affecting the health sector.
