  • Cyclone Nargis
    Emergency appeal n° MDRMM002 Myanmar: GLIDE n° TC-2008-000057-MMR Operations update n° 6 12 May 2008 Cyclone Nargis Desperate conditions: this family seeks a modicum of shelter in awful conditions nine days after they lost their home. (International Federation). Period covered by this Update: first six days since appeal was launched Appeal target (current): CHF 6,290,909 (USD 5.9 million or EUR 3.86 million); <click here to view the attached Emergency Appeal Budget> Appeal coverage: This appeal is already well covered. Initial planning is underway in-country as the International Federation’s ability to scale up effectively increases to support Myanmar Red Cross Society and to meet the huge needs. A revised appeal will be issued by the end of the week. This appeal will significantly scale up the plan of action and give a stronger indication of work within priority areas but there is still a considerable need to remain flexible in the face of the challenges around this operation. 2 <click here to link to the current donor response list> <click here to link to contact details > Appeal history: • This preliminary emergency appeal was launched on 6 May 2008 for CHF 6,290,909 (USD 5.9 million or EUR 3.86 million) for six months to assist 30,000 families. • Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF): CHF 200,000 has been allocated from the Federation’s DREF. Summary: A significant shift in strategic thinking has occurred to try to navigate some of the main issues facing this operation. Principal among these is a proposal to recruit and train local people in Yangon in basic relief management who would then move to ten agreed hubs in the delta (various university students have already expressed an interest).

  • Sputum Smear-Positive Case
    Report on National TB Prevalence Survey 2009-2010 Acknowledgements The National Tuberculosis Prevalence Survey 2009-2010 for Myanmar was conducted by the National Tuberculosis Programme (NTP), Department of Health (DOH), Ministry of Health (MOH), the Union of Myanmar with the technical support from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Research Institute of Tuberculosis/Japan Anti-Tuberculosis Association (RIT/JATA). Financial, human resources and technical support for the survey were provided by the MOH, WHO, Three Diseases Fund, Japan International Cooperation Agency, RIT/JATA, Population Services International and the United States Agency for International Development (see Annex 1). For data collection, NTP coordinated with state, regional, district and township health authorities. Local laboratory technicians and Basic Health Staff worked closely with the survey teams. The contribution of the Myanmar Health Assistant Association was also of great value in completing data collection, data cleaning and data entry. In addition, volunteers, local authorities and local communities participated and made great contributions to the survey. The NTP is most grateful to MOH for its guidance and approval of this survey and for the continual encouragement which enabled NTP to complete the survey during a challenging period. We express our deep thanks and appreciation to all organizations and individuals for their contribution in making this survey successful. We record our special thanks to Dr Hans H. Kluge from WHO for his strong support for this survey, and to Dr Ikushi Onozaki of WHO and Dr Norio Yamada of RIT/JATA for their tremendous contributions. It is our hope both that the survey’s findings reflect our country’s actual disease burden, and also that it will lead to constructive changes in future plans to control tuberculosis in Myanmar.
