Amidst limited resources, health workers have been encouraged to adopt local solutions like using an empty water bottle as a spacer to support asthma care. Innovation ensures no patient is left behind. Dr Rebecca Nantanda UK Research and Innovation Sabrina Kitaka #WorldAsthmaDayUG #AsthmaCareWithMLI

Did you know? Indoor air quality can be as harmful as outdoor pollution. Cook in well aerated spaces to limit exposure to indoor pollutants from cooking sources like charcoal stoves. #AQAW25 #StayAirAware
