The Newlands Clinic team will not forget 9 January 2019 any time soon, as it was the day that Swiss Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis toured our clinic as part of his visit to southern Africa. The foreign minister appeared impressed and emphasised the important contribution that Newlands Clinic is making to the fight against HIV/AIDS. After the visit he went on to meet with Zimbabwean Minister of Health and Child Care Obadiah Moyo.

On January 9th, Swiss Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis will come and see Newlands Clinic on his visit to three southern African countries. The team looks very much forward to welcoming him!
