Health crises can hit us all unexpectedly, affecting individuals and entire communities. Whether it's a disease outbreak or a personal health battle, staying informed helps us understand what's going on and how to respond. For example, Justin Timberlake recently opened up about his fight with Lyme disease during his world tour. His story highlights how chronic illnesses can impact mental and physical health in powerful ways.
On the flip side, technology is also stepping up to help tackle health problems. Take East Africa’s first AI-ready data centre unveiled by Safaricom and iXAfrica. Though it might sound techy, this infrastructure supports advanced medical research and data processing, which can improve how health crises are managed, from predicting outbreaks to speeding up diagnosis.
