Health authorities in Phalombe District say providing correct and timely information is among the most effective ways of preventing cholera outbreaks.

District Health Office spokesperson, Happy Chawinga, made the remarks on the sidelines of a week-long community cholera sensitisation campaign taking place across the district.

Chawinga said the campaign, which is being supported by IsraAID, is aimed at strengthening public awareness and encouraging communities to maintain cholera prevention practices.

The campaign started on Tuesday and is expected to end on Saturday.

Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) Coordinator for Phalombe District Hospital, Harold Mwareya, says most men in the district are shunning HIV testing.

Mwareya told MBC Digital today on the sidelines of World AIDS Day commemorations, held under the theme “Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response.”

He said many men still do not know their HIV status, which leads to delayed treatment and remains a setback in the fight against the virus.

However, he noted that Phalombe is making progress in its overall HIV response, with the district’s HIV prevalence standing at 10.4 percent and a testing yield of 1.9 percent.

“Women of childbearing age and adolescents remain the most affected groups,” he added.

The district is also running key HIV prevention programmes, including PEP, PrEP, PMTCT and VMMC.

Phalombe District Council
🌍Building a Healthier, More Responsive Community🌍

We are pleased to share that an intensive 8-day capacity-building training for health workers is currently underway in Phalombe District. The training runs from 25th November to 4th December 2025 and is supported by the National Local Government Financing Committee (NLGFC) under the Demand-Driven Performance Improvement Plan (DD-PIP). It is aimed at strengthening our performance under the Local Authority Performance Assessment (LAPA).

The training is focusing on complaint management and timely resolution, improving supervision and reporting and enhancing the quality of service delivery through proper monitoring and documentation.

Through this initiative, Phalombe aims to resolve at least 80% of community complaints, improve the overall quality of health services and strengthen LAPA performance for better planning and resource allocation.

We express our sincere appreciation to the national level for the technical support provided and to all health workers participating with commitment and dedication. Your efforts continue to move Phalombe toward a healthier and more accountable district.
