Abstract Background Marburg virus disease (MVD) is a deadly illness caused by the zoonotic virus, which has led to outbreaks with fatality rates up 100% in some African countries. On March 21, 2023, Tanzania had its first MVD outbreak, resulting nine cases and six deaths, leading rate of 66.7%. Following that, Risk Communication Community Engagement (RCCE) approach was promptly initiated create community awareness regarding MVD. A descriptive cross-sectional assessment conducted May 2023...
Environmental pollution caused by the increase of heavy metals concentration in aquatic and terrestrial environments is a growing global concern due to their nature toxicity. This paper aimed undertake an assessment quality fish cultured individual-owned fishponds Dar es Salaam city associated health risks. Data collection involved sampling quantification two species fish, which were African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), from three selected ponds chemical...
Abstract Urbanization and population growth have resulted in the increase of construction housing drilling boreholes around cemeteries causing potential public health environmental concerns. Although provide ecosystem services including green space, micrometeorology control storm water infiltration, they pose a unique threat to quality groundwater as pollutants migrate from graves aquifers. Thus, this study aimed at assessing Dar es Salaam City, Tanzania. The involved sampling 23 five wards....
Postharvest handling in developing countries continues to be a major challenge for most of the farmers. The low economy these is counted as obstacle toward adaptation modern postharvest technologies. present study aimed assess existing post-harvest practises and test suitability evaporative cooling systems reducing losses by using Vunjo-Moshi Rural case study. A total 30 questionnaires covering small commercial farmers were utilised get information regarding practices Vunjo. Two systems,...
Groundwater in unplanned settlements is stressed by multiple pollution sources threatening health of consumers. Elevated nitrogen and phosphorus affect the quality groundwater as they leach through soil to groundwater. This study aimed at establishing variations nitrogenous compounds 75 boreholes used 8 Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Laboratory analysis using Spectrophotometer DR/4000 was conducted Ardhi University. Principal Component Analysis Paleontological Statistics (PAST) software, version...
