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'.

Some 200 hospitals across Tanzania require nets for beds, in many cases for all beds in the hospital. People in hospital are understandably vulnerable to malaria.

This project will distribute, and hang above the beds, nets in approximately 50 hospitals. If more funding is found, more hospitals will be covered.

In each hospital, the full cooperation and involvement of the hospital director and staff will be organised.

A Pilot Phase, involving distribution and hanging of 630 nets in 5 hospitals will preceed the main roll out of the project. This will provide any feedback and learning to ensure the wider distribution is rolled out in the most efficient fashion possible.
