It is a privilege to cooperate with the Ministry of Health in caring for the wellbeing of Tanzania’s people. Proper handwashing is a cost-effective way to reduce the viral spread, protecting health facilities, medical staff and civilians. @umwalimu @water_mission @PDJF_dk
“Wakati tunaendelea kukabiliana na janga la Corona tukumbuke kuwa kuna magonjwa mengine kama ya moyo, kisukari, maralia, figo na ya kuambukiza ikiwemo Ukimwi na TB. Hivyo basi mgonjwa wa aina hii akifika katika kituo cha afya anatakiwa kutibiwa na siyo kukimbiwa.” @umwalimu
