The World Health Organization has urged Tanzania to start reporting coronavirus cases and share its data.

It last did so in May, when about 500 cases and 20 deaths were recorded. The following month, President John Magufuli declared Tanzania “coronavirus-free”.
But concern is growing about the possibility of a hidden epidemic.
