The community members were explained in detail about the causes and symptoms of malaria, preventive measures to be taken and how they can avail treatment.They were also informed that free anti-malarial drugs are available  in all health institutions as well as with the Multi – Purpose Health Worker’s (MPWs) and the ASHA workers.

 

Further, the community members were sensitized about the importance of maintaining hand hygiene especially among children. Maintaining a clean environment and adopting hygienic practices will not only prevent the spread of malaria but other diseases as well.
