@TjaoaneC What is the purpose of drinking the cough syrup?

[Health INSIDER @ModibaCOMM3724]

@Setlhapelo3724 @SComm3724 There are other Continents but unfortunately Africa has the most countries with extremely poor healthcare.

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

@Comm3724Msomi Does being poor also play a role in lack of medical resource?

South Africa has the largest amount of people living with HIV in the world. Yet, there are still so many societal issues that are faced by those who are living with the virus

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

I cant wait to hear what perspective will you use to discuss how these societal based stigmas affect victims.

[comm3724Msomi @Comm3724Msomi]

I hope to bring to light the hardships that people living with HIV go through daily due to societal based stigma. I also hope to show how a poor socio-economic background can negatively affect those who live with HIV while breaking a few stigmas too. Tune into my podcast!

@ModibaCOMM3724 @SComm3724 Indeed and what hurts me the most is that Malaria mostly affects young children about 90% of whom live in Africa according Quora💔

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

@SComm3724 @ModibaCOMM3724 No it is not only Africa. South America also has poor healthcare systems.

[Rainbow 🌈 of hope 4 Mental health issues podcast @chavanicomm3724]

A lack of understanding on mental illness has led to different misunderstandings and stereotypes regarding mental health. And these misunderstanding hinder certain individuals from recovering and establishing support as it makes them feel isolated.

[Health INSIDER @ModibaCOMM3724]

Africans are still to have access to one of the most basic human necessities. There is still major lack of infrastructure and insufficient medical attention due to the lack of staff for patients, such a poor healthcare system in our country affects our healthcare outcomes.

[Max Tjaoane @TjaoaneC]

Young people like smoking hubbly bubbly. They say it is harmless compared to cigarettes and that is not true. Hubbly is more dangerous because the amount of smoke inhaled is more than the one inhaled from cigarettes, please refer to the infographic about the dangers of hubbly.

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

Exactly its their responsibility because at the end of the day they knew what exactly they were doing and what the consequences will be.
In the end protection and contraceptives are important to avoid many stressors related to raw sex.

[The Unproblematic Canary. 💛 @Yellow_Canary24]

It's the responsibility of BOTH partners should a girl fall pregnant from unprotected sex. It's NOT just the girl's responsibility. Where are all the men aaaaaat?!

[@ZithaCOMM3724 @zithanokuthula1]

Have you ever had any of these symptoms? Do not feel neglected, talk to someone you trust or call The South Africa Depression and Anxiety group @ 011 234 4837

Drugs are dangerous to a point where you cannot even function without it. Your appetite and focus may decreases.

[Lets talk Drug abuse @HohoCOMM3724]

Drug use may initially begin as recreational, but can easily become addictive and can affect almost every system in your body. #DontDoDrugsKids

Alcohol is 100% absorbed by the fetus and causes devastating damages to the baby’s brain.

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

Guys, I been going through most of the accounts we created and these public health issues are worrying me. Right now as a society our main focus is towards COVID 19 and that makes us oblivious about more illnesses or issues surrounding us.
#Malaria

[Palesa @Setlhapelo3724]

Malaria's treatment is typically provided in hospitals which a doctor will prescribe medications based on the type of parasite that a patient has. Once you experience any of the symptoms please visit the hospital ASAP!
