Our host Mudiwa Gavaza is joined by Muhammad Ali, CEO of World Wide Industrial and Systems Engineers (WWISE) to discuss the issues.

The discussion also touches on the work being done to ensure compliance by suppliers, failings that led to PPE tender irregularities last year, ISO standards that deal with bribery and difficulties that may be by local vaccine suppliers to ensure compliance with standards.
