In a significant move to prevent potential deaths from dengue fever, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Department of Health Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have launched a crucial training program on the effective management of dengue cases for approximately 100 medical experts.
This joint initiative targets physicians from the province’s key medical institutions, including Medical Teaching Institutes and District Headquarter Hospitals, to equip them with enhanced skills to combat this mosquito-borne disease.
The focus of this capacity-building effort is to improve patient outcomes by reinforcing best practices in prevention strategies, early diagnosis, and the prompt delivery of appropriate treatment.
This collaborative program marks a proactive strategy aimed at strengthening the regional health system’s capacity to handle dengue cases, with the ultimate goal of safeguarding communities and saving lives across the province.
