Zimbabwean health workers have left the country in droves over the past year, a senior official at the Health Services Board (HSB) revealed on Sunday.

More than 4 000 health workers have left since 2021, HSB chairperson Dr Paulinus Sikosana told Reuters.

This includes more than 1 700 registered nurses who resigned last year and more than 900 who left this year.
