Press Release Shimba Technologies improve the health system thanks to their appliances For immediate Release Shimba technologies announce their new product for smartphones, MedAfrica: An app that enables doctors and patients to communicate and follow their health state easily. This project was born thanks to a partnership with the Kenyan Government. Nairobi 14th February 2012 Shimba’s first aim is to equip hospitals, clinics and health centres in all over the country: big cities, small towns and remote areas. MedAfrica is made to develop basic health care at a very low price. It enables a better management of medicine stocks, following-‐up care for patients… In the mean time, the company wants to equip each patient and its family to inform them about their medical state, and their treatment. It would be very useful in some cases like HIV-‐infected people, malaria, tsetse fly disease and infant. Africa is a continent with low sanitary conditions and that is why Shimba made many efforts to put in place this system. ### We are hoping that it could be an example in many other countries and if you are willing for more information, please contact: John Smith +44 3246 5436 874
