Osinbajo Flags Off The Nationwide Integrated Medical Outreach Program by murecool(m): 4:06pm On Mar 16, 2020
Earlier today, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, flags off the Nationwide Integrated Medical Outreach Program, on behalf of President Muhammadu Buhari, by administering the Oral Polio Vaccine.

Excerpts from his speech.

In a few months, Nigeria and indeed the African continent will be formally declared polio-free by the WHO. Our routine immunization programme has also improved from 33% in 2016 to 50% as measured in the 2018 National Demographic Health survey. Mr. President has also repeatedly asserted that his vision of taking ten million Nigerians out of poverty every year for the next ten years depends so clearly on the quantum leap that we must make in our human capacity development attainments, especially healthcare. This is why this integrated Medical Outreach Programme is a crucial feature of our overall human capacity development effort. But, despite our best efforts, there is a significant gap in bringing public health services to vulnerable populations, especially in the rural, mountainous, riverine, peri-urban and other difficult to reach areas in the country.

So this attempt to take basic healthcare services, health education, basic surgeries and screening for diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, tuberculosis, HIV – AIDS and cancer to these under-served and difficult to reach areas is an eminently sensible and practical plan. Not only does it provide free health services to communities that had never in the past enjoyed these sorts of services, but it also provides our public health institutions with invaluable disease identification opportunities and outreach lessons.

So today, here in Bwari, we will flag-off the conduct of the first round of the Integrated Medical Outreach Programme (I-MOP) for the unreached, under-served and vulnerable communities in 409 selected LGAs in the 36 states of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory. The I-MOP intervention is aimed at strengthening and scaling up access to routine Immunization, and other primary healthcare (PHC) services in selected low performing LGAs. The first round of the I-MOP implementation is planned for between the 23rd to 27th March in the selected 409 LGAs in the 36 states and FCT. The second round is planned for 20th – 24th April 2020; and the third round for 1st – 5th June 2020.

With all these giant strides, I have no doubt that in few months from now Nigeria will be a force to reckoned with, health wise. Also worthy to note is the fact that 3 months from now, WHO will declare Nigeria as polio free

The Integrated Medical Outreach Programme will provide free primary healthcare services such as, treatment of minor ailments, immunization, counseling services, health talks, screening for non-communicable diseases and general medical consultations to Nigerians.
Re: Osinbajo Flags Off The Nationwide Integrated Medical Outreach Program by Nobody: 7:01pm On Mar 16, 2020
I thought Nigeria is polio free?

Or was that a rouse as usual?

There are other deadly killer disease that need more awareness.

We must achieve sustainable development goals in the health sector. Eradicating Polio is one of the ways of achieving this feat

When you are castigating someone like Osinbajo, how then do you expect other people to patronize your shop.. don't allow hatred to deprive you of your blessings. If I see changes in you, I may locate you for a business discussion.
