How difficult COVID-19 here in America, where people are encouraged to wash their hands several times a day, Imagine living in a place where you had to walk two miles access to clean water. From India to Nigeria, ten million people live without access to sanitation and good run, let alone Purell bottles. Although we are not able to apply our standards too much of the Southern Hemisphere, there is much that can be done to treat the disease and prevent their spread in areas where it can be fatal. In many parts of the world, diseases such COVID-19 beat so deadly before. Lessons from the front line to the crisis of Ebola in West Africa and outbreaks of cholera and Zika applicable in some of the world most vulnerable and hard to reach communities, and fast. We must act now for a 19-COVID Tsunami maintain the killing of millions of people in developing countries. Places like India and Nigeria, where the spread of the virus are densely populated and have millions of people in a confined space without access to water, reliable electricity or toilets running live. In Syria and other places of millions of displaced refugees, the conditions are often worse. The refugee camp in Cox’s Bazaar in Bangladesh is home to 855,000 displaced people and the only COVID-19 test system in the country is 10 hours away. As we slow the spread of the disease in those parts of the world? Here are five things you can do: Bring the basics: clean water soap and other household products for personal hygiene. While many of us, our hands several times a day for washing to avoid contracting or spreading the virus, they are not giving many families in a position to their children a bath in clean water, even once a week. Humanitarian organizations are well positioned to provide the challenge, providing soap, installing washing stations of the hands and the build water tanks. You will need resources to do this quickly and in many places as possible. Strengthening basic health infrastructure if this virus is sweeping US health care facilities, I guess what with the greatest number of people in places, but less than one hundredth the number of doctors and nurses, and less and poorer health facilities. Still, there are ways to help clinics and hospitals, to minimize that do not exist to serve patients in the most effective possible, pre-position supplies and reinforcement of hygiene processes infection. The outbreak of Ebola in West Africa has taught us how difficult it can take a toll on a pandemic health care providers if they are not sufficiently protective devices are not or no training on the protocols: one in ten suppliers Ebola treatment where he died of the disease. Protect employees in the first line is of utmost importance. It ‘important to quickly train the doctors directly involved in COVID-19 to share nurses and health workers in countries in developing response to infection prevention methods and practices, and the tools from janitors, garbage collectors and teams community health. Leaders empower local women: women are the vanguard of the resilience of the community and will be the keystone in this fight. Because? Because in communities around the world, women are the glue: the care of children and aging parents, managing the budget, support each other. They also provide 70% of the employees health care around the world. For millions of families, agriculture or store attitude of women gives the daily income that translates the evening meal. Fighting misinformation “Infodemic”: The Ebola and Zika battles taught us that Community Trust makes the difference between life and death: Confidence of information and acceptance of these victims lead. Social media can be an important way for information and instructional videos; It can also be a source of misinformation and dangerous theories. Community volunteers to go door to door mobilization, working with facts and important orientation. It ‘been found to help prevent, respond to and mitigate outbreaks. It ‘also important to translate the World Health Organization (WHO) leadership in the national languages - and additional materials with radio messages and written social media. A Helping Hand, raising his voice: The prevention of imminent wave of COVID-19 will bring all of us. It will take any of these guidelines for their own health and safety to stop the spread. And ‘our collective representation of interests, including the promotion of US and European government take in response to additional resources for preventing and responding to development and humanitarian settings. And it will take financial support from individuals, foundations and many of which are already to respond to the call companies. can partner with international humanitarian organizations working on the ground to assess what is needed (and what is not necessary) in the country and local levels, and adapting programs to the needs. In short, it will take a local and global response. When it comes to a highly contagious virus that no community is safe until every community safe.
