Emergency Flood Relief Appeal
Emergency Assistance to flood affected families in Rajanpur District South Punjab-Pakistan
HEALTH
The health situation of the area is very alarming. There is only one District Hospital in Rajanpur. The basic health unit exists in some of the UCs but they are not properly functional. Due to current flood, the community is suffering from different diseases like: Recpiratory Track Infection (RTI), Skin Diseases, Diarrhea, Malaria, Different Infections, Anxiety, Snake bites etc. After the flood, around 49 snake bites cases were recorded, some of them survived and few of them died. Snake bit one female at Rohjan and she was taken to Daherki (Sindh) due to un-availability of the medical services in the area.
FOOD AND NUTRITION
The affected communities are the poorest communities of the area, majority of them engaged in livestock & agriculture. In the normal cases, they purchase and stock food for week to two weeks in their homes. In the case of wheat flour, they usually keep the stock for one month also. As a result of heavy rains & flood that washed away everything including the mud houses. All the food stocks have been lost by the poor affected families. This has threatened the food security in many communities in different towns of district Rajanpur. In these areas food intake for women is already very low because she is the last one in the home to eat, so if there will be a shortage of food at household level it will be women & children who will suffer most.
SHELTER
In the rural area of Rajanpur people use to live in mud houses. Mainly houses compriseof two to three rooms with narrow window and ventilator with a big courtyard. People usually keep their livestock in the court yard during the night time and in the day time they take them out in the fields. The houses are deprived of any toilet system as there is hardly any waste drainage system in the area. The grey water is standing in front of their house as well spreading everywhere. The current flood flushed more then 10,000 houses in the district Rajanpur. People do not have shelters (tents) and they are sitting under open sky.
IMMEDIATE NEEDS
Immediate needs of the area are Food, healthcare, Clean drinking Water, Shelter (Tents), Hygiene kits.
