Awareness Walk On Malaria To Be Held In Non Malaria City?

Although Malaria Patients are not reported from Colombo The Anti Malaria Campaign Officials are Organizing an  Awareness Walk on Malaria in the City Of Colombo on 25th of April  instead of holding it in a area prone to Malaria it has been reported. This Walk is organized to mark the World Malaria Day and to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Anti Malaria Campaign .

Monaragala and Hambanthota districts are identified as the areas where most of the Malaria Patients have been reported but only awareness campaigns in small way have organized in these areas on the day where an awareness walk has been organized in Colombo according to the Health Workers.Even last year the Anti Malaria Campaign had organized a similar awareness walk on malaria in the City of Colombo with the participation of 300 of their district officers.

This years awareness walk is scheduled to begin from Torrington Square in Colombo -07 and it will be heading through Vihara Maha Devi Park in Town Hall.
