Exciting elimination
Kiribati has reached a huge milestone by launching the first-ever national integrated Mass Drug Administration (MDA) program to address both scabies and trachoma —two preventable and treatable diseases that affect communities in Kiribati.
When the health workers come to your school, community or workplace make sure you take your medications. By participating in this historic integrated MDA campaign, we are protecting families, preventing disease, and securing a healthier future for Kiribati. Let’s unite under the banner #United for Health: Kiribati Free of Scabies and Trachoma!
This is a very exciting partnership between the Ministry Of Health & Medical Services-Kiribati, the World Scabies Program, and The Fred Hollows Foundation. We are also proud to be supported by Global institute for disease elimination (GLIDE), and Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade's.
