Gadwal: Even though it rained on Sunday morning, the medical and health department staff continued their work as planned. Under the guidance of District Medical and Health Officer Dr. Siddappa, they conducted fever surveys in different wards, villages, and towns across the district.
The team, which included supervisors, ANMs, and ASHA workers, visited these areas to check for fevers. Besides checking for illness, they also gave advice to the residents on how to stay healthy. They stressed the importance of keeping both personal and environmental hygiene. For example, they recommended boiling water before drinking it and eating food while it’s still warm.
The health staff also asked people to report any cases of fever to them right away. They assured everyone that they are always ready to help. Medical officers, health supervisors, and ASHA workers from various villages are part of this ongoing daily health monitoring program.
