#DYK 🦠 Mpox, previously known as monkeypox, is a zoonotic illness caused by the monkeypox virus. It has symptoms similar to smallpox. It spreads through direct contact with bodily fluids, respiratory droplets, contaminated surfaces, or sharps injuries in healthcare settings.

If you've been exposed to someone with Mpox, symptoms may appear up to 21 days later. Watch out for: ● Swollen lymph nodes ● Rash ● Fever ● Headache ● Muscle aches ● Back pain ● Low energy ● Sore throat Seek medical advice if you experience these symptoms.

In a world where digital access shapes educational success, many learners in 🇿🇼 remain disconnected from the tools they need to thrive. This was the reality for Chidazuru Primary School—until the #LearningPassport Offline Hub arrived. 🖇️unicef.org/zimbabwe/stori…

🧑‍⚕️Mpox can spread through sex, especially w/ multiple or new partners. 🆘While condoms may not entirely prevent #Mpox, they can reduce exposure & severity of symptoms. 🫂It’s recommended to use condoms for 3 months after recovery, as sexual transmission isn't fully understood

Hand in hand, we journey together, for strength is found in unity. At @UNICEFZimbabwe, we pledge that no child will be left behind, #foreverychild's future is our shared dream. #Pictureoftheday

Analia Nokutenda Jora from Kings Primary School in Victoria Falls calls for clean water. "Let’s stop water pollution and protect our future." Thanks to TUI Care Foundation for supporting #Climatechange initiatives.

Access to safe #water remains a challenge in Zimbabwe, with only: 81% of rural communities having improved water sources (2024 - ZIMLAC). While this marks progress from 77% in 2020, about half of households still travel over 500 meters for safe water.

In this insightful video, Anele Sibanda from Kings Primary School, Victoria Falls, shares a compelling message on the importance of clean water access. As we face the impacts of #ElNino, let's remember that #ClimateChange demands urgent action for sustainable solutions.
