The Ministry of Health, in collaboration with the University of Zambia (UNZA), with support from UNESCO under the Lusaka District Health Office and Kalingalinga Nurses, today flagged off the Oral Cholera Vaccine (OCV) campaign. The initiative also includes the distribution of free chlorine to all UNZA students.
The campaign will run from today until Friday. UNZA Response Peer Educators, alongside staff from the Ministry of Health, have been stationed at strategic points across campus to ensure easy access for all students. Students are strongly encouraged to receive the vaccine, as it will help protect them against cholera.
Ba Monk naba Moma, health is wealth, let’s make sure we take the necessary measures.
