Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The heads of State and Government of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) recommended, this Friday, the implementation of multisectoral cholera response plans that encompass the effects of natural and climate disasters on the resurgence of the disease.<\/p>\n

According to the final communique\u0301 of an extraordinary summit of the organization, in virtual format, the proposed multisectoral plans must guarantee effective control of the spread of the disease in the Member States.<\/p>\n

The meeting chaired by the acting president of SADC, Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o, also recommended the joint execution of synchronized cross-border vaccination campaigns against cholera, whenever necessary, and the acquisition of vaccines for affected and non-affected countries at risk.<\/p>\n

Since January 2023, the SADC region has been plagued by a cholera outbreak, with cases recorded, until last Sunday, in five countries (Botswana, South Africa, Mozambique, Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo).<\/p>\n

For this reason, the community\u2019s Member States decided to strengthen regional collaboration in the areas of cross-border outbreak risk assessment and public health surveillance in order to improve early detection and prevention of diseases.<\/p>\n

They also advocated increased investment in the current cholera emergency response to ensure a sustainable solution to the recurrent cholera crisis, as well as the creation of climate-resilient water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) programs and disaster risk, aiming to prevent future outbreaks.<\/p>\n

According to the document, SADC heads of state and government recommended accelerating local and regional production of cholera vaccines, to increase production and improve access to basic products, such as oral rehydration solutions and beds. for treating the disease.<\/p>\n

The objective is to improve control over the security of the supply chain and accelerate the transfer of technologies and knowledge, says the note from this Friday\u2019s extraordinary session.<\/p>\n

During the meeting, participants also approved the strengthening of accountability tools to monitor interventions, with local governments expected to present annual reports on their performance in this area.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, they expressed their heartfelt condolences and solidarity with the countries and families mourning the loss of human life caused by the cholera outbreak.<\/p>\n

They congratulated international cooperation partners, namely CDC Africa, WHO, UNICEF and WFP, for the technical and financial support provided to support the response to cholera in the region.<\/p>\n

The summit appointed the President of the Republic of Zambia, Hakainde Hichilema, \u201cRegional Champion of the Fight Against Cholera\u201d, to lead efforts to combat this disease in the SADC region.<\/p>\n

He expressed his appreciation to the acting president of SADC, Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o, for hosting the extraordinary session of the SADC Summit of Heads of State and Government on Cholera.<\/p>\n

For his part, Joa\u0301o Lourenc\u0327o expressed his gratitude to all his regional counterparts for participating in the meeting and for their firm commitment to guaranteeing the health and well-being of the people of the region.<\/p>\n
