MADAKTARI nchini wametakiwa kufanya mikutano ya kijamii na wananchi ili kuwapa fursa ya kujua magonjwa yanayo wakabili.

Hayo yalielezwa na Dk. Manase Frank pichani wakati akitoa mada katika kongamano la 33 la siku tano la Chama cha Afya ya Jamii Tanzania (TPHA) lililofanyika Hoteli ya Kebby Mwenge jijini Dar es Salaam leo asubuhi.

"Changamoto kubwa tuliyonayo ni wananchi wengi kutojua magonjwa yanayowasumbua hivyo ni muhimu kwa madakatari kuitisha mikutano itakayowakutanisha na wananchi ili kuondoa changamoto hiyo" alisema Dk. Frank.

Alisema wagonjwa wengi wamekuwa wakikata tamaa kwa kuchangiwa na kauli za baadhi ya madaktari ambao wanashindwa kujua tatizo la mgonjwa husika hivyo wakati umefika wa madaktari kushirikiana kwa karibu na jamii, viongozi wa dini  ili kuondoa changamoto hiyo.

Akitolea mfano wa kijana mmoja ambaye alifiwa na ndugu zake wote wa karibu kutokana na ugonjwa wa ukimwi na kuishi kwa kunyanyapaliwa lakini baadaye afya yake ilikuja kuimarika kufuatia ushauri uliotolewa na daktari kwa  jamii iliyokuwa ikimzunguka wakati wa ugonjwa wake.

Mtoa mada mwingine Profesa Andrew Swai aliomba serikali wakati wa siku ya Jumamosi na Jumapili kufunga baadhi ya barabara ili zitumike kwa wananchi kufanya mazoezi ya kutembea ili kujenga afya za miili yako na kuepukana na magonjwa kama kisukari.

Akizungumzia changamoto ya matumizi ya bodaboda Dk.Chilolo Edward (wakatikati)  alisema kwa mwaka jana katika Hospitali za mikoa ya  Morogoro, Tumbi Pwani na Shinyanga kulikuwa na ajali 895 huku majeruhi wakiwa 4813.

Alisema majeruhi waliolazwa katika hospitali hizo walikuwa ni 4525, waliopewa rufaa kwenda hospitali za Bugando na Muhimbili walikuwa 71 na waliolazwa ni 702.

Alisema vifo vilikuwa 81 hivyo vilitokea baada ya kufikishwa Hospitalini ni 70 na vilivyotokea eneo la ajali vilikuwa 11.

Dk.Chilolo alisema ili kupunguza changamoto hiyo inapaswa watoa huduma za afya kutoa elimu kwa waendesha boda boda pale wanapofikishwa mahospitali kuhusu umuhimu wao katika familia na taifa kwa ujumla hivyo kuwa makini wanapoendesha vyombo hivyo vya moto badala ya kuacha kazi hiyo kufanywa na polisi au Sumatra.kwa habari zaidi
