As Sierra Leone continues to report new cases of mpox, the Ministry of health and partners are strengthening Infection prevention and control (IPC) measures in a bid to protect the country’s health workers.
To reinforce these efforts, the World Health Organization (WHO) visited the Hastings Treatment Centre to donate essential medical supplies. Items such as face masks, surgical and isolation gowns, protective goggles, gloves, and boots will help frontline health workers to reduce their risk of infection and deliver care safely.
