Kenya Red Cross has 890 community volunteers trained in epidemic control, health promotion, and community-based surveillance. These volunteers, in coordination with One Health Committees, School Health Clubs and Community feedback, have been able to support rapid detection, alert, response and vaccination campaigns against Anthrax.
Watch the video recording from the call here to learn more about Kenya Red Cross’ work in CBS and One Health, and how an integrated approach has improved early action against anthrax in Kenya!
