HOW THE RURAL WOMEN IN TANZANIA FIGHT AGAINST CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19)??

Pass through the story picture as TAREO visited numbers of family in more than 30 villages in 5 regions in Tanzania mainland from March 2020

The story begin here;
“That first case, a female, had traveled from Tanzania to Belgium on 3rd March and returned on the 15th March. She took a taxi to Arusha town where she locked herself in a room to self-quarantine but later called government officials who took her for treatment. From there everyone heard about Covid-19 and the story,infection,campaign and many more begins”

TAREO distributed and painted some posters around the village.	As number of people donot have mask ,some decided t use traditional banana tree leaves.	After school closed some of the rurall childrem work in the horticulture farms.	Social distances campaign and practices demonstrated in some villages in Moshi rural district.
some people in the village they have no much information about Covid-19.Local business still going on	Local hand wash Innovation done by the villagers to help in gathering situations in rural.	We teach Rural children to stay home and wash their hands with soap and this seems to be practiced by rural children	Not all family can afford  getting quality and recommended hand washing facilities but everyone in rural Tanzania should get information.
Why Tanzania’s rural areas have remained safe from corona virus??: We believe that with the support of our partners we will win the war against corona virus (Covid-19)  in Tanzania	Our aim: Preventing infections and fighting against the corona virus in Tanzania, with main emphasis on rural areas and areas with poor medical and medial access. We will provide rural villages with hundreds of informational posters about the corona virus, to fight against misinformation or lack of knowledge on the topic. Furthermore we request friends,partners and those interesting to donate facilities for hand washing stations, as well as appropriate soap. From may 2020 we are organizing the way we would get mask-“BARAKOA” to distribute in social gathering places like church,mosque,market and local shops and supplies.
