Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 49007, member: 636"] Tano South Municipality kicked off their 2025 Child Health Promotion Week at Bechem Government Hospital. The Ghana Health Service created this nationwide program to boost child immunization and nutrition services. Local officials want everyone to help protect kids from diseases and health problems. Community leaders gathered to discuss how families can keep children healthy and strong. The campaign theme focuses on shared responsibility for protecting young people. Hospital chief Dr. David Kofi Twumasi told parents that early medical care saves lives. He stressed that mothers should breastfeed babies and bring children for regular shots. Municipal leader Emmanuel Kwame Frimpong promised better healthcare facilities for the area. Local pediatrician Dr. Sabina Antobam warned about malnutrition and child abuse cases. She said churches, schools, and families must work together to solve these problems. Health director Dr. Joel Duah urged parents to trust childhood vaccines and attend clinic visits. Medical staff reminded everyone about rising Mpox cases across Ghana with over 170 people infected. COVID-19 has returned to University of Ghana campuses and threatens student safety. Officials asked communities to watch for symptoms and report health concerns quickly. Parents should follow safety rules to prevent disease spread. The health promotion campaign will run for seven days with house visits and public meetings. Community workers plan to reach every family and child during the special week. Traditional chiefs, teachers, mothers, and religious leaders joined the hospital launch event. Health teams will visit neighborhoods to educate families about proper child care. Officials want to make sure no child misses important medical services. [/QUOTE]
