Emergency Response to Measles Outbreak

PHRO organized a medical camp in Bhatti Muhalla (UC Rahooja)
after a measles outbreak claimed 4 lives. With DHO support, 150 children
were vaccinated and 400 screened. The team debunked myths like 'hanging onions
prevents measles' through community sessions.

Key Action

• Blood samples collected for diagnosis
• Vitamin A distributed to affected children
• LHW teams mobilized for follow-up

"PHRO's swift action saved lives. We need sustained
efforts to prevent future outbreaks."
District Health Officer, Sukkur
