West Nile, Uganda

When: Sep-Nov 08

Nets: 10,200 LLINs

Distributed by Malaria Consortium

The Malaria Consortium is one of the few not-for-profit organisations dedicated to combating malaria. More than 90% of our resources are based in Africa. We support Ministries of Health and partners in over twenty African and Asian countries through offices in Uganda, Mozambique, Sudan, Zambia and Ethiopia.

LLINs

What is a Long-Lasting Insecticidal Net (LLIN)?

An LLIN is a mosquito net impregnated with insecticide.

The insecticide is cleverly bound within the fibres that make up the netting and is 'slow released' over a 4-5 year period. Hence 'long lasting'.

Distributed by Malaria Consortium

The rural sub-counties of Nyadri and Tara in the Maracha-Terego district of the West Nile region of Uganda will receive 10,200 nets in 4 related distributions. Malaria in this part of Uganda is highly endemic with year-round transmission and seasonal peaks. 37% of children were reported to have had fever in the 2 weeks preceding a recent survey.

The nets will be distributed to children under 5 and to pregnant women not attending ante-natal clinics and will achieve 'blanket' or 'universal' coverage of both Nyadri and Tara. Malaria education and correct net usage will be an important part of the distribution process.
