- Notes
- Irene went to maliga to talk about the symptoms of skin infections and the people at risk. Irene started with a review of the previous lessons then asked the members some of those things that show that someone has a skin infection. Aida said rash, and pus, mastula said grey skin and scales, Moses said ash, swelling and Irene clarified with the different symptoms given including itching,blisters,redness,among others. Irene then asked the members some of the people at risk and some of those discussed included immune suppressed,malnourished, Nabirye added those who stay in one position for a long time and many more as discussed. After the discussion members asked questions that Irene answered and then informed the members that next time they would discuss the treatment and prevention of the skin diseases.
