    Zimbabwe's main health priorities include communicable diseases like measles and Ebola, and non-communicable diseases such as asthma, heart disease, and diabetes. It also focuses on fetal health and development issues including malnutrition and education. Zimbabwe is doing well with innovative solutions such as water projects to provide clean water and working with charities to prevent malnutrition, and clean water has reduced stillborn mortality rates; however, it is not doing well due to a lack of financial stability from inconsistent economic development and an unstable political structure that decreased health budgets.
