Our correspondent who visited the hospital gathered that most relatives who accompany patients to the hospital for two or more days always return home with malaria as a result of mosquito bite.
Some relatives of patients in the hospital Madam Kewe Augustine and Joseph Ndese who spoke to LEADERSHIP Weekend lamented that they always spend sleepless nights as a result of mosquito bite. “I have suffered and treated malaria since I came to this hospital, the mosquitoes here are unbearable, the worst part of it is that we can not even use a mosquito net for ourselves.
“This our side of work is the worst, even if we spread a local mosquito repellent, we still have to be opening the door constantly to go out and open the gate for those who are coming in and out of the hospital,” she said urging the management to take sanitation more seriously. More so, doctors and nurses who spoke to our correspondent on condition of anonymity said it was always disheartening whenever they were on night duties in the hospital.
