The Federal Government’s fight against malaria received a boost at the weekend when it received 5,000 doses of anti-malaria regiment – Maldox – from Emzor Pharmaceutical Company.
The donation is to support the TIOTOP project in Ondo State to bridge the gap of doses of SP stock-out at health facilities.
Ondo is among the three top states in the country with the highest burden of malaria. The others are Niger and Ebonyi. The project in Ondo is handled by National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP) and the Reproductive Health Division of Family Health Department, in collaboration with Jhpieg on Transforming Intermittent Preventive Treatment for Optimal Pregnancy (TIPTOP) project.
