Enjoy a normal holiday or vacation in Tanzania is now a presidential message and the message the [B]Tanzania Tourism Board[/B]made their policy. Warnings and information about COVID-19 vanished from the official travel and tourism portal for Tanzania.
Is Tanzania ready to welcome tourists from all over the world with open arms, or is this an act of deadly desperation to avoid a collapse of the Tanzania economy?
This action triggered Cuthbert Ncube, chairman of the African Tourism Board to call Africa to be careful, raising his concern it will take weeks after tourism starts to understand or feel the impact or return of COVID-19.
eTN Correspondence Apolinary Tairo had sent this report from Tanzania:
Recording a sharp decrease of coronavirus spread in Tanzania, President John Magufuli had said on Sunday that he was looking to encourage foreign tourists, business visitors to fly to Tanzania for normal holidays and business.

Still not sure if this chap is wrong or right , this guys through natural selection will do quick what will be inevitable to the rest of the world . If this shit goes on for a few more months countries will just have to throw in the towel unless by some miracle a proper vaccine or cure is gotten on time (I have a feeling the rushed vaccine will be worse than the virus ) , if not Tz and Sweden watakuwa mbele .
This Guy is a mental case .The whole world has everyone back at home with their loved ones, cruise ship holidays cancelled,the rich and powerful, back in their countries and close to the most expensive healthcare systems money can buy. International bodies abroad running with only the bare minimum expatriate staff with arrangements for quick evacuation to their homes or nearest equipped health facilities. Even Chinese have abandoned projects here in Kenya and vanished, most probably back to where they came from. Magufuli- with his dilapidated health facilities, with a highly contagious pandemic in full force blazing out of control in his country and with no current data or testing-wants Tourists. Either he is the Devil or is Dancing with the Devil.
Desperation. And which tourist will travel there? Tourist sources knows the covid situation there is bad and will have travel advisories. Unless maybe aliens from mars who are covid resistant
Germans like viisiting Tz and I think them and Swiss ndio huwa wanavisit TZ as tourist. Travelling Germans waliambiwa hio ujeuri yao ya kuzunguka zunguka ndio ilileta COVID 19 kwao…they were told jaribu muone this time around
