🔔 Diphtheria is a highly contagious and potentially life-threatening bacterial infection that can affect anyone — especially children.
Early recognition saves lives.
Watch out for these signs:
➡️ Fever
➡️ Runny nose
➡️ Sore throat
➡️ Cough
➡️ Red eyes
➡️ Neck swelling
📌 Diphtheria spreads through respiratory droplets and close contact with infected individuals – timely diagnosis and treatment are essential.
🚫 Do not self-medicate – it can delay proper care and worsen the condition.
🚨 If you or someone around you shows any of these symptoms, report immediately to the nearest health facility.
🛡️ Prevention is better than cure.
Ensure children are fully vaccinated and always follow public health guidelines.
Let’s stay informed to protect ourselves and our communities.
