Statistics from the Phalombe District Health Office shows that a total of 15,042 young people have accessed family planning services between July and September this year up from 12,951 in the last quarter.

Deputy spokesperson for the district health office, Happy Chawinga has attributed this to good working relationships with players in the youth and health sectors.

Meanwhile, executive director for Phalombe Youth Arms Organization (PYAO), Vincent Makuluni Thom, has commended the authorities for the increase in family planning uptake among youths.

Thom has since appealed to authorities to work with private pharmacies in the district as most of the young people access services from pharmacies without being traced.
