East Godavari District Launches Leprosy Detection and Pneumonia Awareness Drive

East Godavari District Launches Leprosy Detection and Pneumonia Awareness Drive

Imagine your town is having a special health week!

The grown-ups in charge are starting two important drives.

One is to teach everyone about pneumonia, a lung sickness, and to check on little kids to make sure they don't have it.

They will even go door-to-door to see them!

The other drive is all about leprosy, a skin sickness.

They are reminding people that leprosy can be cured with medicine.

If anyone sees strange skin patches that don't feel things, or bumps, they should tell a doctor right away.

These drives are to help everyone stay healthy and get better if they get sick.
