🚨 Urgent Update on Mpox Outbreak 🚨
A senior Kenyan doctor currently working in Kigali has issued a serious warning about the escalating Mpox epidemic in our region. The situation is critical, and immediate action is necessary.
Key points from the doctor's message:
Mpox is rapidly spreading across East Africa, with confirmed cases in Kenya and Uganda.
The doctor attended a WHO meeting in Kigali, where they discussed the possibility of closing churches and schools due to the outbreak's severity.
Conditions in hospitals are deteriorating, with the doctor reporting alarming developments from the hospital they manage.
To protect ourselves, we must return to some of the preventive measures we used during COVID-19, such as avoiding physical handshakes and practicing strict hygiene.
Let's take this seriously. Stay informed, avoid unnecessary physical contact, and follow public health guidelines. Together, we can help slow the spread of this virus and protect our communities.
