| WORLD MALARIA REPORT |
🌍🦟 Recent @WHO 'World Malaria Report' marks a significant step forward in understanding the nuanced relationship between #climatechange & #malaria
Globally, there were 249 million reported cases of malaria in 2022, presenting concerns to the existing #healthcare systems, but there are noteworthy achievements, such as India's efforts at reducing malaria #deaths by 77% from 2000 to 2022.
🌦️ The report states that the climate-malaria connection is complex and dependent on various factors like #temperature, #rainfall, and control measures. Evidence suggests #climate change can directly expand malaria's reach or intensify transmission, as seen in instances like the devastating Pakistani outbreak after heavy #monsoon rains.
Additionally, the indirect effects of climate change on malaria #prevention and control are far-reaching - population displacements due to unlivable conditions can increase exposure, disrupted #healthcare systems including vaccination supply and other essential products, will limit access to preventive and #primaryhealth services, and of course, the loss of monetary resources jeopardizes the ability to take care of one’s health and wellbeing.
At #COP28, the @gatesfoundation announced $57.95 million towards #climateandhealth, allocating $50 million over four years to enhance climate-focused malaria initiatives, addressing changing vector habitats and developing strategies for climate-related challenges in malaria response.

Yesterday, we visited the @SwastiHC Arogyadeepa wellness centre in Kamakshipalya to orient the i4We Wellness Facilitators (WFs) on the🌧️#Monsoon Advisory crafted for the community.
We delved into the current practices followed by WFs, #nurses, #Health educators, and #mentalhealth counsellors- visit frequency, meetings, and target-setting.
Additionally, we were keen to learn about the i4we mechanism for #riskcommunication to get a deeper insight into their #community engagement strategy.
Together, we're committed to promoting #Healthcare and fostering #CommunityEngagement for overall #Wellness.🌿💪
20 year old Baby Arnab is seen interfering, raising his voice & has the guts to touch a serving officer in uniform & then threaten them also.
@MumbaiPolice why no FIR on him?
This sets a horrible president towards how the uniformed officers must be treated...
Weed like to inform the general public that, of all the Essential items permitted in the times of #Corona, Marijuana ain't one of them.
Sorry for our bluntness, but that's just how we roll! 😎
Kudos to @RibhoiPolice for intercepting a Truck carrying 500 KGs of Marijuana.
@mishikasingh advocate Mishika Singh appearing for riot victims said: “The web portal was working earlier and those who applied for compensation were given web IDs. Eventually, the domain was shut. After the court order, the website is running but after submission of application
Online portal working as per hearing on 22/06, but no proof of filing generated on filing compensation form online. How to follow up? How to check status? SDM Office & promises by the @AamAadmiParty have become a joke. Court order not being followed! Double whammy for victims!
On 22/06, #DelhiHC ordered SDM Office to accept forms of victims of #DelhiRiots. On 23/06, this notice was found outside the office. Notice says no work till further notice. Nationwide lockdown lifted but SDM office still remains locked? Contempt of court, mockery of the system?
I don’t play Holi for the simple reason that from the ages of 6-13 years where I did participate in the festivities, I got molested.
It scarred me. To this day, “Holi hai” sounds like a war cry to me, a justification to attack me in any way they wanted, with no consequences.
