Prison Mass Screening & Awareness Program in Polonnaruwa

 

The District Chest Clinic Polonnaruwa successfully conducted a TB mass screening and awareness program at the New Town Prison, Polonnaruwa, reinforcing efforts to detect and prevent tuberculosis among high-risk populations.

The program was organized by DTCO Dr. Nihal Jayaweera and the dedicated staff of the District Chest Clinic, ensuring comprehensive screening and awareness for both inmates and prison staff. Early detection is key to ending TB, and initiatives like these play a vital role in protecting vulnerable communities.

Let’s continue working together towards a TB-free Sri Lanka!
