Zimbabweans 'dying in own homes'

Life expectancy in Zimbabwe is 37 years for men and 34 for women. In the last of correspondent Mike Thomson's undercover reports from Zimbabwe, he looks at the collapse of the country's health system.

The BBC is not allowed to operate legally in Zimbabwe so many of the names of people Mike interviewed have been changed and some locations omitted in order to protect those he spoke to.
