Together, we triumph over cholera … It’s time to vaccinate in Sennar – Safar al -takrai – ✍️ Muhammad al -Aqab
The state of Sennar is preparing these days at a decisive stage in its battle against the cholera epidemic by launching the extended vaccination campaign in the locality of Sennar on the tenth July. This campaign, which targets more than half a million citizens of the age of year and more, the campaign is not only a routine action, but rather an urgent invitation for each individual of our society to participate effectively to protect us, in our loved ones and in the future of our state.
The Ministry of Health has confirmed the completion of all preparations and preparations, which is reassuring, because the vaccine which provides immunity up to 65% is a powerful tool in our hands to limit the spread of this deadly disease. Yes, there can be simple side effects such as fever or nausea, diarrhea, aspiration, abdominal pain, understanding of dry mouth, rash, but of Thasse, but themporain itself, and as explained by Dr. Ghazi al-Jarai, director of the Virtue department, this vaccine is safe and effective.
But success does not depend on the efforts of the Ministry of Health alone. Here, our role comes as members of society, because the greatest challenge lies in the extent of our response and our interaction with this campaign.
The director of the basic health care department of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Fatima Mohamed Abdel Halim, stressed the importance of the interaction of this company, in particular with the fall season which can increase the challenges of the epidemic situation.
Prevention is better than treatment
In addition to vaccination, we must always remember that prevention is the first line of defense. Personal hygiene, supply of drinking water, unpleasant foods and safe elimination of waste is essential pillars in cholera control. We must work to modify certain societal behavior which can contribute to the spread of the disease, as indicated by the Minister of Health in charge, Dr. Ibrahim Al -Awad. Cholera is a preventive disease and our current efforts are the key to success.
How to manage the patient of cholera?
If one of the symptoms of cholera (such as severe water diarrhea, vomiting or clear drought) appear on any individual in your family or community, response speed is a decisive factor. Dr. Ibrahim Al -Awad warned the danger of the patient’s delay, indicating that the high mortality rate, which has reached 6% is painful. You should immediately go to the nearest health center or hospital when you feel one of the symptoms we have referred to. Do not be ashamed to report cases because the “stigma” of the disease increases the problem and delays the required medical intervention. Vaccines reduce the burden of the health system and increase our ability to deal with epidemics.
It’s a decisive moment in Sennar … Let’s all unite, volunteers, media and community leaders with the Ministry of Health to succeed in this campaign … Go to vaccination centers, encourage your neighbors and parents and be part of the solution. With vaccination, awareness and prevention, we will triumph cholera and build a healthier and healthy society.
Let’s do our slogan “Your health is honest … Sinarghalia of Cholera” is a tangible reality in each house, and in each street of Sennar, are you ready to be part of this victory?
