Considerable progress has been made in efforts to eradicate schistosomiasis from several endemic communities along the Volta Lake.
This achievement was revealed during a stakeholder engagement session held at Ensign Global University in Kpong, Eastern Region, where research findings on schistosomiasis control were shared.
A substantial number of affected individuals have been successfully treated-marking a significant step toward complete eradication of the disease.
The engagement brought together key stakeholders including traditional leaders, Members of Parliament, district health directors, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MCEs/DCEs).
