Daniel Mora-Brito joins Lucy Chard to discuss the health landscape in the African continent, covering some of the greatest threats seen there over the years and that are still impacting people’s lives on a daily basis, helping to drive home the importance of improved, localised healthcare in the continent. Lucy and Daniel talk about the economic factors that underpin a lot of the transformations across the region, from the perspective of those on home turf and the companies from different regions looking to invest and expand into this space. Daniel mentions the different actors in the region and what expanding capacities in Africa will mean for patient access in a rapidly expanding population.
