Did you know diseases are often grouped into two main categories: communicable and non-communicable?

🦠Communicable Diseases
These can spread from person to person, through the air, food, water, or insects.

These include:
• Flu
• COVID-19
• Tuberculosis
• Chickenpox
• Measles

❤️Non-Communicable Diseases
These do not spread from person to person and are often linked to genetics, lifestyle, or environmental factors.

These include:
• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• Cancer
• Asthma
• High blood pressure

Prevention matters for both types — through vaccinations, healthy habits, regular checkups, and early treatment. Stay informed and take care of your health! 🌟

✔️ Wash or sanitize your hands afterward

Lead exposure in children is preventable — and awareness matters. Even small amounts of lead can affect a child’s brain development, learning, behavior, and overall health.

Common sources include old paint, contaminated dust, soil, water pipes, and some imported products.

Parents and caregivers can help protect children by:
• Washing hands and toys regularly
• Using cold tap water for drinking and cooking
• Keeping homes free of peeling paint and dust
• Having older homes tested for lead
