Drug Treatments Resume With Safety Measures
May 18, 2021
In most places where The Carter Center works, community drug distributors, such as Stella Chibueze in southern Nigeria, now travel from house to house to provide treatments due to new COVID-19 procedures. In the past, gathering places such as schools and churches were often used as community distribution points.
The COVID-19 pandemic’s relentless spread across the world forced Carter Center health programs to make drastic changes. The World Health Organization recommended halting mass drug administration for all neglected tropical disease programs in April 2020, and The Carter Center complied.
Mass drug administration, in which entire communities receive drug treatment to halt disease transmission, was interrupted or delayed, but intense work went on behind the scenes to develop sets of COVID-safe procedures.
