Dodoma Region's Coordinator for Non-Communicable Diseases, Dr. Missana Yango, is urging residents to participate in a free health screening campaign. He emphasized that early detection through such checkups is essential for identifying health risks and starting treatment promptly. The initiative, located at Nyerere Square, provides complimentary screenings for conditions including high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, and heart disease, alongside nutrition counseling.
Dr. Yango explained that the campaign is a government effort led by the Ministry of Health and the Dodoma City Medical Officer. It aims to counter the growing rate of non-communicable diseases, which are becoming more common due to lifestyle shifts. One participant, Tumaini Shauri from Nzuguni, praised the program for making vital services accessible and providing valuable medical advice to the community.
