With the governments strong denial stance, Tanzanians are not allowed to release any COVID-19 data that the government has not verified, which means that ordinary citizens as well as journalists and medical professionals are barred from commenting on COVID-19 in digital spaces, or accessing information.
Kufuatia msimamo mkali wa serikali kukana uwepo wa UVIKO-19, Watanzania hawaruhusiwi kutoa takwimu zozote za UVIKO-19 ambazo serikali haijazihakiki, hii ikiwa na maana kwamba wananchi wa kawaida ikiwa ni pamoja na waandishi wa habari na wataalam wa afya wanazuiwa kutoa maoni kuhusu UVIKO-19 kwenye majukwaa ya kidijitali au kupata taarifa muhimu.
