[00:03:22] but if every person in The head of the Transitional Sovereignty Council, [00:03:25] Lieutenant General Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, affirmed Sudan's strong [00:03:30] interest in developing Sudan's foreign relations to serve [00:03:35] for all citizens in the supreme interests of the Sudanese people.

[00:06:03] News summary from Sudan TV. Greetings [00:06:06] and respect. Welcome Munzir. Thank you, [00:06:09] dear colleague, Professor Al-Ja'far. [00:06:12] Welcome again, our viewers, through [00:06:15] the Variety Studio. That was a news summary [00:06:20] the current Sudanese situation. We will continue with you in "Pulse of the Country" and "Pulse [00:06:24] of the Nation" with a number of anticipated stations, segments, and pulses. [00:06:28] and available. But let's go for a short [00:06:31] break and then we will resume [00:06:35] with you. [00:07:20] If you want a new [00:14:21] Welcome again, dear viewers, viewers of Al-Watan. [00:14:25] And Sudan TV. Greetings to you and greetings to all the people who have joined [00:14:28] us for following and watching, and all the people who [00:14:32] journey at two o'clock. Welcome [00:14:35] to all. [00:14:39] guests, God willing, will be present with us in the studio to discuss [00:14:43] a number of important topics and issues for the dear viewer. [00:14:47] the upcoming segment to have with us [00:14:50] Professor Abdel Malik [00:14:53] Daak, Salah Abdel Malik Daak, President of the Qatari [00:14:57] Red Crescent in Sudan, and a member of the Advisory [00:15:00] Office at the Federal Ministry of Health. Professor, [00:15:04] welcome and have a good day. May God bless you. Welcome, [00:15:07] Professor. We will discuss two main points in particular: [00:15:11] a point that focuses on the environment and combating [00:15:14] disease vectors, and a point where we will talk [00:15:17] about, as we are in October, Pink October and breast [00:15:21] cancer, and some related topics. [00:15:24] Welcome again. And first, we would [00:15:27] like to know about the role of the Ministry of Health, [00:15:31] and you are an advisor in the Advisory Office, in the matter of [00:15:34] combating disease vectors. Combating [00:15:39] the capital Khartoum or even in the different [00:15:42] states. May God bless you, brother. First of all, thank you [00:15:46] for the invitation. And I represent [00:15:49] the Qatari Red Crescent [00:15:52] here. Our work with the ministry currently is coordination work, and I am also [00:15:56] a member of the advisory office of the Minister of Health. Yes, [00:15:59] and we believe [00:16:02] that the cleaning efforts [00:16:06] in Khartoum state are almost integrated [00:16:11] parties, including international organizations [00:16:15] also [00:16:17] the government of Khartoum state. I [00:16:21] think this was one of the very clear things [00:16:23] for people entering the state, there were [00:16:27] clear signs that efforts were being made in [00:16:31] the cleaning [00:16:33] of the environment. In fact, the Qatari Red Crescent, [00:16:38] in continuation of these efforts, and we also [00:16:41] the working parties, [00:16:44] launched a project for environmental sanitation in Khartoum [00:16:47] state. Yes, and I consider it [00:16:50] one of the very successful projects because [00:16:54] its impact is clear. We were able to participate [00:16:58] with the municipality and the local localities by adding [00:17:01] trucks and forklifts [00:17:04] and loaders. And we have a full team that [00:17:08] is working, in addition to providing [00:17:11] some incentives for [00:17:14] the workers. So I think [00:17:18] now in eastern Khartoum, there is a lot of [00:17:21] work continuously, [00:17:24] and in many areas, we like [00:17:28] to see the before and after picture of projects. Yes, [00:17:31] but in this project, you see it very quickly. I mean, they show you [00:17:35] a picture of a street or an area. After three [00:17:38] or four hours, they show you a new picture, so the situation [00:17:43] the current efforts that people want to see. Cleaning [00:17:46] is a continuous process. I mean, [00:17:50] I think it's true that the streets need [00:17:53] it, and so on, but I think [00:17:57] the presence of people now [00:18:01] cleaning more. I mean, cleaning always [00:18:06] the unit. Yes, it's true [00:18:09] the house and every house that came [00:18:12] and cleaned, I mean, what's inside it. After a while, [00:18:16] we reach a clean capital and a clean area. Excellent. So I think [00:18:20] the return of people now has started to increase in the capital, [00:18:23] and we noticed, I mean, the Qatari [00:18:26] Red Crescent's office was in Port Sudan for [00:18:29] three years. We were there during the war. Yes, we returned [00:18:33] about four months ago, but [00:18:36] we noticed that the number of returnees, the cars, [00:18:39] the areas, this shows [00:18:43] that there is a big return and conviction, and people don't come [00:18:46] by invitation, they must see. [00:18:49] I mean, all of them, and they must also hear [00:18:53] from the closest people to them, so that they are convinced that [00:18:57] things are good and they can return. And it is a call to all [00:19:00] citizens and refugees in a number of different countries around the world [00:19:03] to return to the capital Khartoum and to the states, because the situation has become [00:19:07] safe and the environment is now completely available. People, of course, at the beginning, [00:19:11] there were some fears, [00:19:14] I mean, that were scaring people in previous [00:19:17] months, for example, dengue and malaria, [00:19:21] and these themselves came due to the displacement that happened [00:19:23] to many, but now with the cleaning [00:19:26] and the return of a large number of people, I let [00:19:30] it decrease even its indicators that are available [00:19:33] at the level of reports from [00:19:36] hospitals. So there is a big decline. Yes, [00:19:39] for cases or it has become within the normal range. I mean, Professor [00:19:44] the screen, let's comment on these [00:19:47] images, and as we talk, I mean, [00:19:50] and also very important details. [00:19:54] I wish we could talk about them, and you [00:19:57] represent the presidency of the Red [00:20:00] Crescent, the office of the Qatari Red Crescent in Sudan, and also a member of [00:20:04] the advisory office of the Ministry of Health. Let's talk about [00:20:07] the role of partnerships between government agencies and [00:20:13] Sudan in preparing the environment and combating [00:20:17] diseases and disease vectors. [00:20:20] organizations, especially the Sudanese Red Crescent, [00:20:24] volunteers. The issue of cleanliness, as I said, [00:20:27] is an organizational work indeed, and it is [00:20:31] the work of the municipality or the localities. [00:20:34] But the role of the individual and his personal conviction [00:20:38] that the environment around us should be a clean environment [00:20:41] and that he should maintain [00:20:43] it. We might currently have cleanliness, but [00:20:47] the issue [00:20:51] the existing cleanliness? [00:20:53] I think [00:20:58] organizations operating in Sudan, most [00:21:03] direct relief and supporting [00:21:06] displaced people or supporting those affected by the war. [00:21:10] Yes, but guiding people or directing [00:21:13] priorities to environmental health [00:21:15] and sanitation, I think it is [00:21:19] the major aspect organizations. [00:21:23] Environmental sanitation, its clear impact [00:21:25] is reducing diseases. I mean, the cleaner the environment, [00:21:31] of diseases, their indicators decrease, especially [00:21:34] those transmitted by vectors such [00:21:37] as mosquitoes that need a fertile environment [00:21:40] to grow in. So I think if we want [00:21:44] to combat some of the existing epidemics, [00:21:48] treatment or pills and such things, but how we [00:21:52] clean the environment around us [00:21:55] in a way that does not allow these vectors [00:21:58] to reproduce. And [00:22:01] Professor, as you mentioned, I mean, there are [00:22:05] huge campaigns [00:22:07] in the capital Khartoum. I mean, ensuring the continuity of these [00:22:11] campaigns and making them sustainable, not seasonal, [00:22:14] is important. Yes, well, look, we are currently, besides cleaning, [00:22:18] we will also work on distributing containers where people can [00:22:22] put their [00:22:25] waste, and so on. Yes, [00:22:29] waste. I mean, it will be distributed, God willing, [00:22:32] streets. And we always set an example, [00:22:35] and we like other organizations also [00:22:38] to follow our example in expanding the circle, in addition [00:22:42] to awareness. I mean, if the container that exists [00:22:45] is there, and the person who didn't, I mean, didn't have the awareness [00:22:50] to put these things in their proper place, [00:22:53] then it would also be a waste. I mean, Professor, the issue of guidance [00:22:57] and awareness is really very important for all people in Sudan. [00:23:01] I wish we could talk about this issue, because guidance and awareness [00:23:04] and fighting from inside the home are also complementary. [00:23:08] Complementary, I mean, [00:23:11] fighting in general. Yes, look, I think even [00:23:15] the use of pesticides, we think on a small [00:23:19] scale, I mean, a family opened its house [00:23:22] and bought pesticide to [00:23:25] kill insects inside the house, and the neighbor also [00:23:29] bought pesticide. So you, the more [00:23:32] the circle of people who clean [00:23:36] and kill and fight these vectors increases, [00:23:39] after a while, you will have something better than [00:23:43] a plane. If we reached the level [00:23:47] of awareness that every house takes care of its complete [00:23:51] within the house limits, I think [00:23:55] if this was replicated, I saw it in [00:23:59] Sudan, by the way, that had a lot of flies, but [00:24:02] the people's departure and their use of these pesticides [00:24:05] on levels. The seasons came and they didn't appear. It's true. So it's not necessary [00:24:09] for a plane to come and spray, [00:24:12] his unit took care of it and cleaned it, by repeating this [00:24:16] matter, you would have a very large sector. [00:24:20] Healthy and well. I mean, God willing, health, wellness, and happiness [00:24:25] Sudan, and God willing, Sudan will be free from all these. Yes, [00:24:29] our main problem is malaria and dengue [00:24:32] fever. And both of them are manageable through [00:24:36] environmental work in a sound and extensive way. [00:24:40] It gives you a direct effect, as I said. If [00:24:43] we want anyone to get sick and we give him a pill to swallow, we have [00:24:47] to prevent the source, prevent the problem. Yes. [00:24:54] We continue with you, Professor Salah Daak, in another [00:24:58] topic. We are in October, Pink October, [00:25:01] October, the month of awareness about breast cancer. [00:25:05] I mean, the importance of this month and your role in the issue [00:25:09] of awareness. Look, for us, awareness [00:25:13] should be continuous. [00:25:15] October is a period [00:25:19] and a month where we remind people that [00:25:22] there are diseases that need [00:25:25] care, there are diseases that need [00:25:28] awareness, and [00:25:31] there are diseases that [00:25:34] one can avoid [00:25:38] with very simple measures, including breast [00:25:41] cancer, for example, for women. We [00:25:44] believe [00:25:48] is one of the diseases [00:25:52] but if I came to some common diseases that [00:25:55] we hear about, like high blood pressure and diabetes, [00:26:00] a person. Once it comes, it means it will continue with you your whole life. [00:26:03] Cancer, no. If you followed [00:26:06] early detection and follow-up, [00:26:09] it can be completely cured. Also, [00:26:13] we have some awareness that should go [00:26:16] to different levels. I mean, people [00:26:20] have a general impression, for example, that [00:26:23] smoking causes [00:26:25] cancer. What kind of cancer? Yes, lung [00:26:29] cancer, lung cancer. This is the understanding. [00:26:32] Yes, that smoking causes lung cancer in [00:26:36] everyone, but it doesn't cause it. It causes [00:26:39] all cancers because essentially, smoking, [00:26:42] the substance in it is [00:26:44] nicotine. So the lung is a vent for this [00:26:48] nicotine. As soon as it enters the blood, it then goes [00:26:52] anywhere. Among the things it causes is breast [00:26:55] cancer, especially passive smoking. [00:26:58] I mean, by the way, if a person smoked [00:27:00] a cigarette, the smoker of the cigarette [00:27:03] is harmed, but the person next to him [00:27:07] is harmed 10 times more because the person who smokes [00:27:11] directly uses a filter, [00:27:15] the filter at the end of the cigarette. So this [00:27:18] reduces. It is harmful, it causes [00:27:22] harm. But the person next to him who gets [00:27:25] direct smoke without a filter is harmed more, harmed more. [00:27:29] So passive smoking currently. [00:27:33] Many women now in their homes [00:27:36] have their husbands and their friends, some people [00:27:39] play cards, they come and sit for very long hours in the living room [00:27:43] and they smoke, they smoke. So in [00:27:47] the end, the poor woman smokes, [00:27:49] she inhales [00:27:52] the smoke. Yes, [00:27:55] does not only cause lung cancer, it causes [00:27:59] all cancers. It causes more than 50 types [00:28:02] of cancers. Yes, I, I, when [00:28:06] do I, I mean, feel that I should consult a doctor or [00:28:10] go to a doctor, and the importance of early detection. Let's talk about that in [00:28:13] itself. I mean, look, [00:28:18] cancer, in particular, it is called a malignant [00:28:21] disease. Why is it malignant? [00:28:25] It's called malignant because it [00:28:27] is painless, it is hidden, there is no [00:28:31] pain. Pain, by the way, is a good [00:28:35] thing. I mean, today, an alarm, pain. Yes, I mean, a person wakes up in the morning with [00:28:38] a headache. It's true. At that moment, it's nothing, but it's good [00:28:41] because it makes you go straight to the doctor. Right? You check [00:28:45] to see where the problem is and what's going on. But [00:28:48] cancer has no pain. So it [00:28:51] grows in the body, and after a while, a person feels [00:28:55] the breast and finds a large mass [00:28:57] there. Therefore, it is required [00:29:01] that a woman periodically, every now and then, [00:29:04] checks herself so that if there are any changes in the breast, [00:29:08] if there is a tumor, an internal mass, a change [00:29:11] in the skin, a change in the skin color, the shape [00:29:15] of the nipple in the breast, I mean, she can notice any [00:29:18] changes, and she immediately reports it. Unfortunately, some [00:29:22] people, as soon as they find something like this, instead of reporting it, they get scared, [00:29:26] thinking that if I go to the doctor, [00:29:29] what will he surprise me with? Something big, big. [00:29:41] Of course, mammograms are also considered very [00:29:45] accurate if available. I mean, any woman from [00:29:48] puberty until the age of [00:29:51] 55-60 should periodically have a mammogram [00:29:55] examination, and this can [00:29:57] detect [00:30:00] early cancer [00:30:19] I mean, you see the existing symptom and try to [00:30:23] alleviate it. Therefore, I believe that self-examination, [00:30:27] mammograms, [00:30:30] and reporting any changes to the doctor [00:30:33] are what can save lives. I know cases, [00:30:36] relatives, I mean, [00:30:40] they had an operation, for example, 25 years ago. [00:30:43] She saw it, she found that the problem was over, this applies to all [00:30:47] people who are afraid at first to go to the doctor, and a response to all [00:30:51] people who say that cancer has no [00:30:53] cure. There is a common saying like that. Absolutely. It's [00:30:57] not, look, cancer is not one cure.
