Distributed by Red Cross

Our headquarters are in Geneva, Switzerland, from where we support members with technical, material, human, and financial support to better respond to emergencies and to major health problems.

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 Red Cross

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.

Documentation

Locations

A distribution sometimes takes place in a number of locations. Each location may have its own pictures and video.

Survey status

Surveys take place 6, 18, 30 and 42 months post-distribution. A survey of 50 households provides sample information on what proportion of nets continue to be used, if they are used correctly and the state of the nets.
