Distributing TB Meds
Fritz and I, showing the new public health students how to perform directly observed therapy (DOT) for our Tuberculosis treatment program.
Every Monday and Thursday, the PH team travels with cups, water and their Tuberculosis (INH) meds to track down the over 100 children in the area who have tested positive for TB. The directly observed therapy (DOT) program that we use requires the public health workers to hand deliver the meds to the children and watch them take the meds.
