Public health communication's media

With rapid population growth, globalization, and environmental degradation, health threats have become more complex. Solutions cannot be found in one sector alone. The One Health approach leverages the idea that problems impacting human health, animals, plants, and the environment can be effectively resolved through improved coordination, communication, and collaborative actions across disciplines and that these solutions are sustainable.

There is no one size that fits all. There is no one size that fits all. We must work country by country, region by region, community by community, to ensure the diversity of needs are addressed to support each reality.

South Sudan National Cholera Strategic Plan concluded today

Cholera is an infection of the small intestine by some strain of the bacterium vibrio Cholerae. Symptoms include diarrhea, nausea and,vomiting and dehydration. In a country where cholera occur, an outbreak is defined by occurrence of at least 1 confirmed case of Cholera with evidence of local transmission in an area where there is not usually cholera outbreak. Cholera transmission is closely linked to inadequate access to clean water and sanitation facilities. Sudan has not confirmed any case of Cholera for last the last two years and this does not means cholera is no more. We are looking for ways of preventing and timely response and containing it, if it happened in the future.
