7PM Tuesday 23rd October at Cafe 30 (Soulé) We’re THIS close to ending Polio, come to the Rotary Club of Suva East’s meeting to learn more.

Ending polio: Rotary members have played a key role in bringing the world to the brink of polio eradication. Our efforts have not only ended polio in 122 countries but also created a system for tackling myriad other health priorities, such as Ebola.

Community Mosquito Release Saturday 20th October at 10AM, 5 Ma’afu Street, IUCN Regional Office
Wolbachia-carrying mosquito egg capsules will be distributed. Wolbachia is a safe and natural bacteria that reduces the ability of mosquitoes to transmit dengue, chikungunya, and Zika between people. The Wolbachia-carrying mosquitoes will breed with wild mosquitoes in the area, helping to establish Wolbachia in the local mosquito population.
