The Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) has officially called for the immediate and unconditional removal of unilateral sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe. This demand aligns with a statement issued on October 23, 2026, by the Chairperson of the African Union Commission, H.E. Mahmoud Ali Youssouf, who advocates for the lifting of restrictions against specific Zimbabwean institutions and individuals.

The Africa CDC warns that these ongoing sanctions pose a significant threat to the nation's healthcare sector. According to the organization, the restrictions risk disrupting essential healthcare financing and potentially limiting access to critical medical services within the country.
