Help baby Pranavi battle blood cancer

Two-and-half-year-old Pranavi, daughter of Jagadish and Nisha Latha couple at Mannagudde, Mangaluru, who supposed to be active and playing in and around her home, is now seeing the four walls of hospital on regular basis.
 
She was diagnosed with blood cancer three months and has been under treatment since then in KMC, Mangaluru. When she was not able to walk at her early stages, her parents got her checked up by doctor. Although initially she was under medication for walking problem, then she was taken to KMC Paediatric haematologist, Dr.Harsha Prasada for further checkup, wherein she was diagnosed with blood cancer. 
 
It’s been more than two months. Doctor advised that it is curable, but she has to undergo three-year-long treatment, which would cost total about Rs 8 lakhs. Her parents had already spent around Rs 5 lakhs with much difficulties. Now they became empty-handed without having any source of revenue for the baby's further medical treatment.
 
They hardly hope for the medical condition of the baby with their present financial condition. So, the parents kindly request for the financial help from big-hearted and philanthropists in order to save the life of the baby. 
 
"What you earned for yourself dies with you; but what you give for others will remain immortal"-is the saying that would definitely yield value when we extend our helping hands to those who are in need.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) on Saturday launched a Health Alert on WhatsApp where over 1.5 billion users can ask questions and they will be provided with reliable information about new coronavirus 24/7.

This will also serve government decision-makers by providing the latest numbers and situation reports, WhatsApp said in a statement.

To contact the WHO Health Alert, save the number +41 79 893 1892 in phone contacts, and then simply text the word 'Hi' in a WhatsApp message to get started.

The service responds to a series of prompts and will be updated daily with the latest information.

"You can also visit the WhatsApp Coronavirus Information Hub at whatsapp.com/coronavirus," and click on the WHO link on the homepage to open up a chat with the WHO Health Alert if you have WhatsApp installed," said the micro-blogging platform.

The WHO Health Alert will provide official information on topics such as how to protect yourself from infection, travel advice, and debunking new coronavirus myths.

The service is initially launching in English but will be available in all six languages within the coming weeks (English, Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish.)

"Digital technology gives us an unprecedented opportunity for vital health information to go viral and spread faster than the pandemic. We are proud to have partners like Facebook and WhatsApp, that are supporting us in reaching billions of people with important health information," said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the WHO.

The WHO Health Alert is the latest official NGO or government helpline to become available on WhatsApp, joining the Singapore Government, The Israel Ministry of Health, the South Africa Department of Health, and KOMINFO Indonesia.

Earlier this week, WhatsApp, in partnership with the World Health Organization, UNICEF, and UNDP, launched the WhatsApp Coronavirus Information Hub. The hub offers general tips and resources for users around the world to reduce the spread of rumours and connect with accurate health information.

WhatsApp also announced a $1 million grant to the International Fact Checking Network to support fact-checking for the #CoronaVirusFacts Alliance.
