WHO: World Health Organisation. %: Percentage. ≥: Greater than. <: Less than. vii ABSTRACT Schistosomiasis is an “emerging tragedy in our new global health decade” being endemic in 76 countries of the world affecting about 200 million people of the 700 million people living in the endemic areas. Even with readily available drugs, the pervasiveness of the intermediate host snails and the ease at which re-infection occurs; its control still presents an important challenge for public health services around the world. The objective of the study was to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices amongst the residents of Piida B village, Butiaba landing site towards the prevention and control of Schistosomiasis. I conducted a cross sectional qualitative study where a population of 246 respondents were interviewed using pre-coded questionnaires. The demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitude and practices were then established and data generated and presented using tables, graphs and charts. I found out that over 87% of the respondents had some general knowledge about Schistosomiasis although 206 (84%) had no or very low level (primary school dropout) of formal Education and fishing was the main occupation 101 (41%). There was also continuous contamination of the lake with faecal matter with 83 (74%) reported defaecating either in the lake or nearby bush at lakeshore while in water, as well as contact with lake water amongst 235 (96%) without the use of any protective gadgets amongst 190 (90%) with 197 (93%) accepted uptake of PZQ tablets during mass deworming. In conclusion in spite of the good general knowledge about Schistosomiasis, its prevention and control still possess a big challenge. I recommend continuous Health Education on proper disposal of human faeces and urine; avoid contact with lake water or use of protective gadgets as well as annual mass deworming. viii CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND Schistosomiasis has been described as an “emerging tragedy in our new global health decade” with its control still presenting an important challenge for public health services around the world (Baker John, et al., 2007; Hotez and Fenwick, 2009; Standly et al, 2009; king, 2009; and WHO, 2010). It is endemic in 76 countries of the world, affecting about 200 million people of the 700 million people living in the endemic areas with about 120 million people having symptomatic infection, 20 million develop severe disease and between 150,000-280,000 die as a consequence of the disease per year (Van der werf et al, 2003; WHO, 2010). About 7.1 million people are infected with S. mansoni in the Americas, 95% of which is in Brazil (WHO, 2010). Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for approximately 80-85% of the 200 million infected people worldwide with the overwhelming majority of human infections caused by S. mansoni or the S. haematobium group (Hotez et al., 2009; Steinmann et al, 2006; WHO, 2002). In Uganda, an estimated 2 million people are infected, 13% of the population is at risk of infection commonly caused by S. mansoni found in 63 out of the 112 districts with the countrywide prevalence is just over 10%, but in selected foci there is almost 100% severe infection with the highest prevalence and intensity of Schistosomiasis in areas along the main water bodies especially in lakes Victoria, Albert, Kyoga, and Albert Nile (along River Nile) but it is focal There is no clear data on it’s the prevalence at Buliisa but is said to be endemic along Lake Albert ((Kabatereine et al., 2003, 2004; Tukahebwa, et al, 2013). 1 1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Since the official launch of the Uganda National Programme for the control of Bilharzia and Intestinal Worms at Pakwach, Nebbi District in March 2003 with mass drug treatment using Praziquantel (PZQ) (Kabatereine et al 2003), the intensity of Schistosomiasis was reduced by 70% and 98.2 in the first and the second year respectively. People later developed reinfections because of the continued contact with infected water suggesting that knowledge about prevention and control were not fully used in Uganda thus lead to raising an issue of health education by the Community Drug Distributors as a way forward (Kabatereine, et al, 2006). It was noted that infection and re-infection with Schistosomiasis can only be avoided if communities or individuals have good knowledge about the life cycle and control methods (Koukounari et al, 2007; Simonga 2009). The study therefore, intended to investigate the knowledge, attitudes and practices on prevention and control of Schistosomiasis amongst the community of Piida B village which findings shall tell how much Health Education has been implemented as an additional strategy. 1.3 OBJECTIVES 1.3.1 BROAD OBJECTIVES To assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices of the residents of Piida B village, Butiaba landing site towards the control and prevention of Schistosomiasis. 1.3.2 SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES a. To find out how much the people know about Schistosomiasis. b. To find out what prevention and control measures the community undertakes. c. To find the impact of the community practice on Schistosomiasis. 2 1.4 STUDY QUESTIONS 1. What do the residents of Piida B know about Schistosomiasis prevention and control? 2. Do these residents have any precautionary measures towards the prevention and control Schistosomiasis? 3. What might be the impact of people’s practices on the prevention and control Schistosomiasis? 1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY This study was intended to identify the gaps, misconceptions, lack of knowledge, good and bad attitudes and practices towards the prevention and control of Schistosomiasis and help and guide the policy makers and implementers in formulation and incorporation of health education strategies specific to that community.

  • Annual Report 2014/2015
    ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL ANNUAL REPORT 2014/2015 To regulate peaceful applications of ionizing radiation in Uganda for the protection and safety of the public and the environment from the dangers resulting from ionizing radiation FOREWARD The Atomic Energy Council was established by the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008, Laws of Uganda, to regulate the peaceful applications of ionizing radiation in the country. The Council consists of a policy organ with five Council members headed by the Chairperson and a full time Secretariat headed by the Secretary. The Council members are appointed by the Minister. During the reporting period, the Council extended its services to various parts of the country ranging from registering facilities that use radiation sources, authorizing of operators, monitoring occupational workers, carrying out inspections of facilities among others. The Council made achievements which include developing safety guides for medical and industrial practices, establishing systems of notifications, authorizations, inspections and enforcement, establishing national and international collaborations with other regulatory bodies and acquisition of some equipment among others. The Council also participated in the IAEA General Conference. Among other challenges, funding was the major constraint to the implementation of the Act and the regulations by the Council. This was coupled with inadequate equipment and insufficient number of staff. The Council will focus on institutional development, establishing partnerships and collaborations and safety and security of radioactive sources in the FY 2015/2016. The Council would like to thank the government and in particular the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development (MEMD), the International Atomic Energy Agency, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission and other organizations and persons who have helped Council in executing its mandate.

    Annex 3: Baseline Survey Report <Fish> 1 Survey objectives The purpose of the survey was to identify important areas for the various fish species in and around the Ayago Hydropower Project area. The results of the survey would indicate the location of the critical areas/habitat types for various resident fish species. Physical water quality would be measured in the field using electronic probes to give a quick indication on habitat quality. A comparison with results of similar surveys on River Nile would be made to gauge the importance of Ayago hydropower project area as habitats for fishery biodiversity. 2 Survey methodology The fish survey was conducted along the south and north banks of River Nile within the Ayago Hydropower Project area. In particular fish surveys were made in the following zones: i The south and north banks of the proposed inflow and outflow zones of the hydropower generation tunnel; ii The zone of convergence of River Ayago and other selected tributaries, with River Nile along the north and south banks. Six survey points with a total of 17 sites were identified and surveyed. Selection of the survey sites was representative of the major habitat types including river mouths, bays, water flow characteristics notably turbulent waters close to rapid, areas of counter currents, and waters with moderate flow. The handline with a long cable, basket traps and gillnets of various sizes were the most practical sampling gear from the river banks. A castnet was at times deployed. Hand lines were often deployed to less than 30 m offshore due to heavy presence of hippos.
