They are mostly anti-malaria drugs and mosquito nets and it will help a lot because we had run out of stock,\u201d he said. \u201cWe are going to distribute these drugs to the health facilities in the payams according to the number of health facilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe commonest diseases in Morobo County are malaria followed by diarrhea and pneumonia and other respiratory diseases because of the cold here,\u201d Malish added.<\/p>\n<p>He urged the population in the county to make use of the health facilities as drugs are now available.<\/p>\n<p>Baibai Moses, a resident of Morobo town, welcomed the donation of medical supplies and appreciated UNICEF for having the people of Morobo County in mind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently, there people coming back from Uganda and Congo to resettle back home in Morobo and yet the number of medical services are limited,\u201d he said. Some people are marginalized in the far locations like Kimba, Yondu, Udabi, and Lujele and the government should ensure that health services reach them through mobile outreach services.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government also has to ensure that these drugs are well managed otherwise they will end up being sold in Uganda or D.R Congo\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>According to Baibai, the relative peace and stability in the area have seen people return to their homes and some of the medical centers need rehabilitation and staffing.<\/p>\n<p>Morobo County is one of the counties in Central Equatoria State that was severely affected by the 2016 conflict which displaced thousands into neighboring Uganda and D.R Congo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
