Health policy for sickle cell disease in Africa: experience from Tanzania on interventions to reduce under-five mortality

Tanzania has made considerable progress towards reducing childhood mortality, achieving a 57% decrease between 1980 and 2011. This epidemiological transition will cause a reduction in the contribution of infectious diseases to childhood mortality and increase in contribution from noncommunicable dis...
