When a child presents with Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP), health workers report this and then liaise with the families concerned to launch an investigation into whether or not the child has #polio .

Once the wastewater samples have been collected, surveillance officers package each sample carefully to be transported to the lab to confirm whether #polioviruses are present.

The number of children paralysed by #polio has dropped drastically since the eradication effort began in 1988 but paralytic polio remains a risk to children everywhere until poliovirus has been snuffed out completely.

It's #WorldPolioDay
To end #polio for good, everyone needs to play their part
Surveillance for polioviruses is key. Across the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office (EMRO) Region, there are environmental surveillance sites from where polio health workers collect wastewater for detecting polio

It's #BreastCancer Awareness Month
If you notice changes to your breasts, such as a lump, pitting of the skin or pain, go and see a health practitioner for a check-up.
Most breast lumps are not cancerous. Those that are, can be more effectively treated if identified early.

It’s #BreastCancer Awareness Month.
#BreastCancer survival rates should not vary based on location. Yet, they do.
People living in low- and middle-income countries have lower breast #cancer survival rates and are more severely impacted by the disease.
This needs to change❗️
