Unilever donates

centre to main­tain hygiene.
“I hope these donations would help to complement the efforts that are being done to lessen the rate of typhoid. As Unilever we find ways of doing things differently and besides doing business we can help communi­ties,” he said.
Mr Braeken said Unilever was com­mitted to working with hospitals to alleviate hygiene-related outbreaks. He said people should wash hands at least five times a day with salt in the absence of soap.
Director of health services for the town Dr Gloria Gonese said although the situation was now under control the outbreak was not yet over.
“We are still fighting the outbreak,” she said.
Dr Gonese said two deaths were reported yesterday.
Dr Gonese said typhoid had spread all over Chitungwiza, Unit K being the most affected. The Chitungwiza outbreak started on July 2 in Unit K.
