COVID-19: Rotary Club Donates Preventive Kits To Health Centres In Bayelsa
The Rotary Club of Yenagoa has donated preventive kits to the Amarata Primary Healthcare Centre and Family Support Programme Clinic in Ovom, as part of efforts to prevent the dreaded COVID-19 pandemic in Bayelsa.
The President, Rotary Club of Yenagoa, Mr James Peretu, said this while making the donation to the health facilities yesterday in Yenagoa.
The preventive kits include 28 bottles of hand sanitisers, 10 packs of surgical face masks and 60 tablets of antiseptic soap.
“We are here to present this little items toward the fight against COVID-19 in our little ways.
“I think this is not much but it can go a little way to assist in the fight, as other NGOs will still present theirs,” he said.
He appealed to other organisations to also support the government by equipping primary healthcare centres with drugs and needed equipment to ensure availability and accessibility.
On his part, the immediate past President of the organisation and Chairman, COVID-19 Response Committee, Dr Obioma Obikeze, said the items and materials donated would enable the health facilities to enhance preventive measures and control.
“We are happy that they are doing those things we wanted them to do, so it is a way of support to the residents of Bayelsa,” he said.
Obikeze advised residents to practice and maintain personal hygiene, saying that by doing all those necessary preventive measures, “Bayelsa will never have any case till when it will come to an end”.
