Can you tell me if the post (see below) will be accepted for the HIFA and CHIFA fora? Why are there so few items this week? I hope it is not due to covid.Best wishesAnn

Dear CHIFA
The November 2020 issue of the South Sudan Medical Journal carries two items on snakebite in South Sudan. The editorial raises concern about the number of fatal snakebites in the country and urges all parties to ramp up efforts toimprove snakebite programmes. The main item from MSF describes their programme in the Abyei region and includes the MSF Agok Snakebite syndromic classification.
