Incident Report Description

In Dera Murad Jamali or DMJ, in Nasirabad district MSF continues to operate a DTC which on 28 August had 46 admissions. MSF continues to receive information of additional flooded towns and villages where people remain stuck and evacuations not planned in places like Tambu, Babhakot.

Around DMJ MSF hears reports of more -diarrhoearelated deaths in IDP camps such as Patfeeder Canal, Degree College, Notal and Model College camps. Clean water is still a major problem in DMJ and tankers continue to supply water that is below emergency standards. MSF will not start distributing water until it is allowed to start the purification of water sources.
MSF is conducting several mobile clinics in the DMJ area and in the past week made 1,047 consultations. The mobile clinics are treating cases of acute watery diarrhoea skin infections, malnutrition, and supplies for women. For malnourished children who are recorded by MUAC in the red-orange scale are provided with a Ready-to Use Food (RUF) supplement for seven days and are followed-up for progress a week later.
