class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">COVID-19 disease, which ravaged the whole world, did not spare Zimbabwe, and this led the nation to declare it a national disaster in March 2020. The pandemic affected the nation economically, politically, socially, and psychologically, leading it to adopt preventive measures like use of national lockdowns, continual screening and testing, social distancing, and quarantine. Some of the measures were very effective; however, some could not fit well in the local contexts.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Commentary on COVID-19 in Zimbabwe Zimbabwean Situation Regarding the COVID-19 Pandemic","attachmentId":64038883,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/43729433/Commentary_on_COVID_19_in_Zimbabwe_Zimbabwean_Situation_Regarding_the_COVID_19_Pandemic","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/43729433/Commentary_on_COVID_19_in_Zimbabwe_Zimbabwean_Situation_Regarding_the_COVID_19_Pandemic"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="6" data-entity-id="98647084" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/98647084/BiAS_36_ERA_11_Religion_and_Health_in_a_COVID_19_Context_Experiences_from_Zimbabwe_ed_by_Molly_MANYANGONISE_">BiAS 36 / ERA 11: Religion and Health in a COVID-19 Context: Experiences from Zimbabwe (ed. by Molly MANYANGONISE)</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="9486731" href="https://independent.academia.edu/BednichoNyoni">Bednicho Nyoni</a><span>, </span><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="4590124" href="https://uni-bamberg.academia.edu/BiasSeries">BiAS Series</a><span>, </span><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="5289573" href="https://independent.academia.edu/EnnaGudhlanga">Enna Gudhlanga</a><span>, </span><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="10585513" href="https://zou-ac.academia.edu/vengesaichimininge">vengesai chimininge</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Bible in Afrika Studies 36 / Exploring Religion in Africa 11, 2023</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">BIAS 36 explores the intersection of religion and health in a COVID-19 context specifically focusing on Zimbabwe. With the menace of COVID-19 across cultures, this volume places its focus on this pandemic and how it has reshaped the discourse on the way, religion interfaces with health. The book further examines the ambivalence of religion in shaping attitudes towards health-seeking behaviour as well as influencing responses to pandemics. This book, therefore, makes a valuable contribution to the body of knowledge by offering an incisive analysis of how the pandemic has shaped the way religion has contributed both positively and negatively to the discourse on health in Zimbabwe. Such an analysis is crucial in informing policy on the future relationship between science and religion in public health both during this pandemic as well as in the post-pandemic era and the crises ahead.

The impacts are affecting the social well-being of global citizens which triggers the need to investigate the psychosocial effects. In order to achieve and to provide the missing African context, the study was done in Zimbabwe. Due to lockdown restrictions, samples were obtained using online survey and social media platforms. Analysis was done to determine the effects, so far, of the virus on the general economy, psychological and social aspects as well as religious values of the citizens qualitatively and quantitatively. The findings indicated that economic loses were recorded at household, corporate and national levels. Indicators included increases in prices and exchange rate which eroded the buying power of local currency and increased the cost of basic commodities.

Guided by findings drawn from both primary and secondary sources the study considered the upsurge in local transmissions in Zimbabwe as influenced by social, political, religious, and economic factors. These factors were narrowed down to detailed issues which include porous and weak boarder security, a dysfunctional transport system, corruption at both local and central government level, traditional cultural beliefs, myths, government’s response and lockdown measures, stigmatization, poverty, social media, politics, weak infrastructure, and medical systems, refugee matters and the international or global perspective regarding Covid-19.
