Summary
Atzin's health promoters - all young women from the community - responded quickly to the threat of covid19. They rolled out a three-part plan starting in mid-March: community education about covid with home visits, street by street; distribution of food packages every two weeks to 600+ families who are most in need; provision of medicines for those with chronic conditions; and, sewing 4,500+ cloth face masks with distribution to families. Despite difficult circumstances, their work continues.
