The following video, of the pregnant mother who contracted COVID-19, is a testimony to the dedication and commitment of the staff of the Aga Khan Hospital in Dar es Salaam. It is another example of how the Hospital and its Primary and Outreach Health Centres have actively supported the Government’s efforts to provide care to patients, education to communities and other forms of support during COVID-19. 

The Aga Khan Health Service, Tanzania (AKHS,T) is one of the longest serving not-for-profit private health care institutions in Tanzania, having established the first health dispensary in Dar es Salaam in 1929.The recent expansion and modernisation of the Hospital has enabled it to provide a significantly higher level of specialised care, combining cutting-edge technology with highly skilled human resources. In addition, 23 outreach centres allow AKHS to reach out to communities across Tanzania and provide integrated health services.
