This week, WSP and Ministry of Health and Medical Services Solomon Islands have been training healthcare workers on mass drug administration (MDA) in Malaita Province.
The training provides MDA teams with the knowledge and abilities needed to carry out the community treatment campaign effectively. The teams will begin rolling out the MDA in Malaita this coming Monday the 23rd of September. They will be travelling to communities, schools, and workplaces over three weeks.
When the healthcare workers come to you, make sure you take your medications to help stop the spread of scabies in Solomon Islands!
