Dimapur, Aug. 10 (EMN): Dimapur and Wokha districts launched the second round of National Deworming Day (NDD) on Thursday. NDD is held twice a year in the country focusing on children through schools and Anganwadi centres.
It is a public health initiative in India aimed at combating the problem of soil-transmitted helminths (STHs). The main aim of the day was to reach out to as many children as possible with a single dose of albendazole. The mass deworming of children from the age group of 1-19 years is planned on a fixed day strategy to reduce the harm of Soil Transmitte Helminths (STH).
In Dimapur, the second round National Deworming Day was observed at GMS Model Village in 5th Mile, Dimapur. The programme was organised under Rashtriya Bal Swasthya Karyakram (RBSK), Dimapur.
Dr. Kadila, medical officer in-charge of RBSK, has sensitised the school children on the benefits of de-worming twice a year. She informed them on the harmful effects of STH as well.

He added that worm infection in children could lead to anaemia, diarrhoea, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting.
Dr. Khuvung informed that worm infection could be controlled by maintaining personal hygiene and keeping the surrounding clean. He also emphasised on following proper hand washing methods, washing fruits and vegetables before consumption and discouraging the practice of open defecation.
He further informed that healthcare workers and Anganwadi workers would be distributing deworming tablets at various health units, schools and Anganwadi centres across the district.

LONDON — German football giants Bayern Munich have agreed a deal to sign England captain Harry Kane from Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur.

The deal is expected to be worth more than 100m euros (£86.4m), the BBC reported.

Kane has been the German champions’ leading target and they had several bids rejected before reaching an agreement.

The 30-year-old, who has one year left on his contract with Spurs, is eager for his future to be settled before Tottenham's season-opening Premier League game at Brentford on Sunday.

The forward is Tottenham's all-time top scorer with 280 goals in 435 appearances. With 213 goals in 320 Premier League games, he is currently 48 goals off breaking Alan Shearer's record as the highest-scorer in Premier League history.

Kane has won the Premier League Golden Boot three times -- in 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2020-21 -- since making his debut for the club in 2012.

Yet England's all-time leading scorer with 58 international goals, Kane has never won a major trophy with club or country.

Bayern, on the other hand, have won 11 Bundesliga titles in a row and have won the Champions League six times and German Cup on 20 occasions.
