🛡️ Diphtheria: Know the Danger

Diphtheria is a serious and potentially life-threatening bacterial infection that can spread from person to person, mainly through respiratory droplets.

Watch out for symptoms such as:

* Sore throat and difficulty swallowing
* Fever and weakness
* Swollen neck
* Difficulty breathing
* A thick greyish-white coating in the throat or tonsils

The good news? Diphtheria is preventable through vaccination. 💉

Parents and caregivers, please make sure children receive their recommended vaccinations and seek medical attention promptly if they develop concerning symptoms.

Protecting one child helps protect the whole community.

Vaccination is not just personal protection it is community protection. ❤️
