STOP THIS WAR THAT KILLS CHILDREN
Global Heart Care (GHC) and African Cultural Institute unequivocally
pronounce support for Ukraine.
Global Heart Care expresses its deep
concern with the military attack against the people of Ukraine.
Our global members, other cardiovascular societies including PASCaTS condemn
the military invasion of Ukraine and call for immediate end to the ongoing military
aggression. The parties should seek for peaceful settlement of all political
and teritorial disagreements to avoid more civilian displacements, emotional
stress, break out of disease pandemic, loss of many lives including children
and collapse of the health and socio-economic systems of Ukraine.

Corona-Virus (COVID-19) and Travellers to Africa
How Corona-Virus is Spread
Corona-virus is transmitted like MERS or SARS, then it transmits like a common cold. Because it's a new illness, we do not know exactly how coronavirus spreads from person to person. Similar viruses are spread in cough droplets, contaminated hands. It is transmissible by bodily fluids, and requires direct contact with an infected individual or surface.

Tätigkeitsbericht 2019
BMZ/GIZ und AKI Klinikpartnerschaftsprojekt in Ghana
- Partner stärken Gesundheit -
Die positive Entwicklung der afrikanischen Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft hat dazu geführt, dass durch den veränderten Lebensstil und Klimawandel zunehmend Risikofaktoren wie Bluthochdruck, Diabetes, Fettleibigkeit auftreten. Viele Menschen haben keine Möglichkeit sich ärztlich bzw. vorsorglich untersuchen zu lassen um eine Diagnose für ihre Beschwerden zu bekommen. Herzerkrankungen, Brust-, Leber- und Bauchspeicheldrüsenkrebs werden zu spät diagnostiziert. weiter
