Our Vaccine and Covid19 education programme continues

The number of Covid19 infections among our mothers and their families continues to fall and importantly the number of those very ill with the virus has reduced substantially. Our education programme has been very effective in curbing the numbers of people in our villages infected with Covid19.

We have continued with this important innitiative and in February Joe our director held an awareness and educational meeting for our mothers in the village of Kolappalur. Joe explained the importance of getting vaccinated, it's safeness and also how vital it is to maintain a very high level of hygiene to prevent the spread of the virus.

Nandri in partnership with the local government has organised 100 vaccination camps over the last number of months in the Tamil Nadu region. The village of Kolapppalur has been very receptive to the education programme provided by Nandri and there is now a 95 per cent uptake of the vaccine among the villagers.

Life in our Nandri villages has returned to near normal in the last few weeks as the infection rate has subsided. Our mothers and their families are very grateful for the educational support and practical food and financial aid Nandri has provided through this very difficult time.
