The goal is to make a diagnosis of certainty, to differentiate diseases whose signs are similar and for which to avoid self-medication, responsible for antimicrobial resistance cases in extreme poverty communities.

The worst of this poverty consists of a mosquito-rich environment, malaria vectors. In addition, the population is unable to easily access hospital centers and indulges in self-medication. There is self-medication of poultry and goats without a veterinarian’s prescription. Sick animals are stuffed with multiple antibiotics. This results in a high probability of antimicrobial resistance.

In Lubumbashi, a survey identified antimicrobial resistance aspects through locally raised chickens, disruptions in quality of medicines sold in makeshift pharmacies and self-medication among populations.

At Lumata, a differential laboratory diagnosis is made for Brucellosis detection, a pathology whose symptoms can be confused with those of malaria.

During the One Health Day, through a panel of discussions, results will be made accessible to communities.
