Drug and Logistic Management at PHC
MD PSM Lecture Notes
1. Introduction
Drug and logistic management at the Primary Health Centre (PHC) is the backbone of delivering essential medicines to communities. Poor drug management leads to stockouts, wastage due to expiry, irrational prescribing, and ultimately poor patient outcomes. The topic covers the entire supply chain - from selection and procurement to storage, distribution, use, and monitoring.
The Free Drugs Service Initiative (2015) under NHM and Comprehensive Primary Health Care (2018) have been major policy drivers to strengthen medicine availability at PHC level in India.
2. The Supply Chain Cycle (Six Rights)
The goal of drug logistics is to ensure:
| Right | Description |
|---|---|
| Right Drug | The correct medicine per the EDL |
| Right Quantity | Neither excess (wastage) nor deficient (stockout) |
| Right Quality | Within expiry, stored properly |
| Right Place | Available at the point of care |
| Right Time | Available when needed |
| Right Cost | Procured economically |
3. Selection of Drugs - Essential Drug List (EDL)
- Based on the National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) - currently NLEM 2022 with ~384 medicines
- PHC follows a restricted State/District EDL tailored to common morbidity patterns
- Drugs are selected based on: disease burden, efficacy, safety, quality, and cost-effectiveness
- In Uttar Pradesh, the EDL was pruned from ~1,300 to ~300 items to improve manageability and availability
Criteria for selection:
- High disease burden in the catchment area
- Evidence of efficacy and safety
- Availability of quality-assured formulations
- Cost-effectiveness
4. Quantification and Forecasting
Quantification determines HOW MUCH to procure.
Methods:
| Method | Principle | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
| Morbidity method | Based on disease incidence × treatment courses needed | Ideal; requires good disease data |
| Consumption method | Based on past consumption records | Most common at PHC level; requires good stock records |
| Adjusted consumption | Consumption + adjustments for stockouts, population growth | Practical and recommended |
| Proxy consumption | Uses data from similar facilities | Used when records are poor |
Formula (consumption method):
Quantity to procure = [Average monthly consumption × months of stock required] - current stock on hand + safety stock
Safety stock (buffer stock): Usually 1-2 months supply to cover supply delays.
5. Procurement
PHCs in India generally do not procure independently - drugs are supplied through a centralized system:
Central Medical Stores Organisation (CMSO) / State Medical Stores
↓
District Drug Warehouse / Medical Store Depot (MSD)
↓
Block PHC / Community Health Centre (CHC)
↓
Sub-Centre / ASHA / Patients
Procurement Principles:
- Centralized procurement ensures economies of scale and quality assurance
- Drugs procured by the state through Rate Contracts (RC) or Tender system
- Push system: State sends pre-calculated quantities to facilities (common in India)
- Pull system: Facilities requisition based on their own stock levels (more rational)
- NHM's move is towards a hybrid pull system using passbooks/indents
6. Storage at PHC - The Drug Store
Good Storage Practices (GSP):
Physical requirements:
- Clean, dry, well-ventilated room
- Protection from direct sunlight, pests, and rodents
- Separate cold chain section (refrigerator at 2-8°C) for vaccines, heat-sensitive drugs
- Separate storage for narcotics/scheduled drugs (under lock and key)
- Emergency drug tray/cabinet accessible 24×7
Temperature monitoring:
- Ambient store: 15-25°C (avoid >30°C)
- Cold chain: 2-8°C (monitor twice daily with thermometer)
Stock arrangement principles:
| Principle | Full Form | Application |
|---|---|---|
| FIFO | First In, First Out | Older stock placed in front, used first |
| FEFO | First Expiry, First Out | Items expiring sooner used first regardless of when received |
| Preferred at PHC: FEFO | Prevents expiry wastage | Most important in field settings |
Labelling:
- Each item labelled: name, batch no., expiry date, manufacturer
- Separate areas for: ready-to-use, near-expiry (within 3 months), expired (quarantined)
Dangerous goods:
- Disinfectants, reagents stored separately from medicines
- Flammables away from heat sources
7. Inventory Management - Analytical Tools
A. ABC Analysis (Always Better Control)
Classifies drugs by cost/consumption value (Annual Drug Expenditure):
| Category | Items | % of Budget |
|---|---|---|
| A | 10% of items | ~70% of budget |
| B | 20% of items | ~20% of budget |
| C | 70% of items | ~10% of budget |
- A items: strict control, frequent review, small order quantities
- C items: bulk ordering, infrequent review
B. VEN/VED Analysis (Vital, Essential, Desirable)
Classifies drugs by therapeutic importance:
| Category | Definition | Example |
|---|---|---|
| V - Vital | Life-saving; stockout is dangerous | Adrenaline, IV fluids, oxytocin, morphine |
| E - Essential | Effective for significant diseases | Antibiotics, antihypertensives |
| D/N - Desirable/Normal | Minor/self-limiting illness | Antacids, vitamins |
At PHC, vital items must have a buffer stock of 2-3 months.
C. ABC-VEN Matrix (Combined Analysis)
Most powerful tool:
| V | E | N/D | |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | AV | AE | AN |
| B | BV | BE | BN |
| C | CV | CE | CN |
- AV (High cost + Vital): Strictest control, never allow stockout
- CN (Low cost + Non-vital): Least priority; acceptable to stock less
- This matrix guides budget allocation and reorder decisions
D. Lead Time and Reorder Level
- Lead time: Time between placing an order and receiving it
- Reorder level (ROL): Stock level at which a new order must be placed
ROL = Average daily consumption × Lead time + Safety stock
- Maximum stock level: ROL + Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)
- Minimum stock level (Safety stock): Buffer against supply delays
8. Distribution at PHC
- Internal distribution: Drug store → OPD counter → inpatient ward → emergency
- Outreach distribution: ASHA, ANM, sub-centre depot
- Passive distribution: Patient collects from OPD pharmacy
- Active distribution: Health worker takes drugs to community (e.g., DOTS, iron-folic acid, ORS)
Issue procedures:
- Drugs issued on indent/requisition slip with patient register number
- All issues recorded in stock register (inward-outward ledger)
- Balance verified against physical count periodically
9. Records and Reports
Essential registers at PHC Drug Store:
| Register | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Stock register | Running balance of each drug (inward, outward, balance) |
| Indent register | Track orders placed to district |
| Expired drug register | Record of expired/condemned stock |
| Cold chain log | Twice-daily temperature readings |
| Narcotic register | Legal requirement for Schedule X/H drugs |
| Dead stock register | Non-consumable items (equipment) |
Monthly reports to Block/District:
- Drug utilization report
- Stockout report
- Expiry report
- Requisition for next supply
10. Rational Use of Drugs (RUD)
Rational use = right drug, right dose, right duration, right route to the right patient.
Problems at PHC level:
- Polypharmacy
- Overuse of antibiotics, injections
- Underuse of essential medicines (patient affordability)
- Non-adherence (incomplete courses)
Promoting RUD:
- Standard Treatment Guidelines (STGs) / National Treatment Protocols
- Regular prescribing audits
- Drug and Therapeutics Committee (DTC) at district level
- Continuing Medical Education (CME) for prescribers
- Generic prescribing policy
11. Quality Assurance
- Visual inspection: Physical damage, discolouration, turbidity, broken seals
- Batch recall: Remove specific batches flagged by state drug authorities
- Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO): National regulatory body
- Drugs procured through government must carry WHO-GMP certification
- Not for sale label mandatory on government-supplied medicines
12. Disposal of Expired/Unused Drugs
- Defacement before disposal (marking "EXPIRED - NOT FOR USE")
- Returned to district warehouse with documentation
- Environmental disposal as per Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules 2016:
- Cytotoxic/hazardous drugs: incineration
- Most oral solids: encapsulation in cement or secured landfill
- Liquids: dilution and drain (not for hazardous liquids)
- Never return to market or redistribute expired stock
13. Logistic Management Information System (LMIS)
- LMIS collects, processes, and reports data on drug flow
- Enables: stock visibility, consumption tracking, demand forecasting, stockout alerts
- India's initiative: e-LMIS / Health Facility Management System (HFMS) under NHM
- DVDMS (Drug and Vaccine Distribution Management System): Used under NTEP (TB programme) for cold chain tracking
- eSanjeevani / HMIS: Integrated reporting
Benefits of LMIS:
- Real-time stock visibility across facilities
- Automatic reorder alerts
- Expiry tracking
- Reduces pilferage through accountability
- Enables data-driven procurement decisions
14. Common Problems at PHC Level
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Stockouts | Poor forecasting, supply delays, no safety stock | Pull system, buffer stock, LMIS |
| Drug expiry wastage | Overstocking, FIFO not practiced | FEFO, accurate forecasting |
| Irrational prescribing | No STGs, no audit | STG implementation, DTC |
| Pilferage/diversion | Weak accountability | LMIS, regular audits |
| Cold chain failures | Power cuts, poor monitoring | Solar refrigerators, log books |
| Polypharmacy | Patient pressure, habit | Training, generic prescribing |
15. Key Indicators for Drug Management Assessment
| Indicator | Benchmark |
|---|---|
| % of EDL drugs available on day of survey | ≥80% (WHO minimum) |
| Average stock-out days per year | <30 days |
| % of drugs expired | <5% |
| % prescriptions conforming to STG | >80% |
| Average number of drugs per prescription | <3 (WHO ideal) |
| % drugs prescribed by generic name | >80% |
| % drugs actually dispensed | >80% |
16. Summary Mnemonic - Steps of Drug Management
"S-Q-P-S-D-U-M"
| Step | Meaning |
|---|---|
| S | Selection (EDL, NLEM) |
| Q | Quantification/Forecasting |
| P | Procurement (centralized, tender) |
| S | Storage (GSP, FIFO, FEFO, cold chain) |
| D | Distribution (push/pull, outreach) |
| U | Use (rational use, STGs) |
| M | Monitoring (LMIS, records, audit) |
High-Yield Exam Points (MD PSM)
- VEN vs ABC: VEN = therapeutic importance; ABC = economic value. Combined ABC-VEN matrix is the most useful tool.
- FEFO is preferred over FIFO at PHC (prevents expiry wastage in field settings with limited staff vigilance).
- Safety stock = 1-2 months for most drugs; 2-3 months for Vital (V) drugs.
- Morbidity method is ideal but requires good disease data; consumption method is most practical.
- Push vs Pull: India traditionally push-based; NHM reforming toward pull/hybrid (passbook/indent system).
- DVDMS: Used in NTEP for drug and vaccine distribution management at state drug store to district drug store level.
- Narcotic register: Legal under Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act.
- WHO indicators: Average drugs per prescription <3 (ideal); ≥80% EDL availability; >80% generic prescribing.
- Reorder level = (Daily consumption × Lead time) + Safety stock
- Expired drugs: Never return to market; managed per BMW Rules 2016.

Recent Research on Supply Chain Performance in Indian PHCs
Here is a curated review of the most relevant recent research, organized by theme.
1. Redesigning the Public Health Supply Chain in Uttar Pradesh
Namasivayam V, Purwar M, Jain S et al. (2025)
"Lessons learned from redesigning public health medicines supply chain model in Uttar Pradesh, India"
Frontiers in Public Health | doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2025.1588227
This is the most directly relevant recent paper. UP, India's most populous state (238 million people, 30,000+ facilities), had only ~40% essential medicine availability in public health facilities as of a 2017 audit. The paper describes adaptation of Tamil Nadu's TNMSC model (India's gold standard, established 1994) to create UPMSC (UP Medical Supplies Corporation).
Seven pillars of the redesigned system:
- Stable Essential Drug List (pruned from ~1,300 to ~300 items)
- District warehouses under centralized UPMSC control
- Centralized procurement with competitive tendering
- Passbook/indent system (hybrid pull)
- Quality assurance mechanisms
- Centralized payment to reduce vendor delays
- Digital e-tracking via DVDMS for real-time inventory visibility
Key results (by April 2024):
- Medicine availability improved from ~40% to ~100% (avg 275 out of 287 medicines available per warehouse)
- Supply order value: USD 58M → USD 112M
- Facility consumption value: USD 38M → USD 90M
Remaining challenges: Last-mile delivery bottlenecks and delayed payments to vendors.
2. National Survey on NCD Medicine Readiness at PHC Level
Krishnan A, Mathur P, Kulothungan V et al. (2021)
"Preparedness of primary and secondary health facilities in India to address major noncommunicable diseases: NNMS"
BMC Health Services Research | PMID: 34332569 | doi: 10.1186/s12913-021-06530-0
A nationally representative cross-sectional survey across 537 public primary facilities (PHC/CHC/DH) using the WHO-SARA tool.
Key findings:
- Only 1.1% of rural public PHCs had ALL essential technologies and medicines for the three major NCDs (diabetes, CVD, COPD) available simultaneously
- Just 0.4% of CHCs and 14.5% of DHs were fully equipped under NPCDCS districts
- Medicine shortages co-existed with shortages of nurse-midwives, physiotherapists and specialists
- NPCDCS implementation was found in 72.8% of CHCs and 86.8% of DHs - but implementation quality was poor
"Both private and public primary care facilities and public secondary facilities are currently not adequately prepared to comprehensively address the burden of NCDs in India."
3. Qualitative Metasynthesis on Barriers to Healthcare Access in India
PMC12515987 (2024-2025)
"Facilitators and Barriers of Accessibility and Utilization of Healthcare Facilities in India: A Qualitative Metasynthesis"
Systematic review of 36 qualitative studies (PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Google Scholar; searched March 2024)
Medicine availability was identified as one of the highest-frequency systemic barriers across studies.
Selected participant quotes from the synthesis:
- "Only medicines for fever, cough, and cold are available in the nearby dispensary. Most of the time, stock runs out; it takes 3-4 days for new medicines to arrive."
- "In the last 6 months we never received amoxicillin tablets."
- Community health workers: "We don't have any medicines with us... except paracetamol, nothing is given, and that too is not given sufficiently."
The synthesis links supply failures to: poor procurement planning, inadequate distribution linkages, insufficient last-mile delivery, and weak logistic management information systems.
4. PATH - Digital Supply Chain Transformation Across 9 States (2024-25)
PATH India / MoHFW Partnership (2025)
"Transforming Supply Chains for Equitable Health Access in India"
path.org/our-impact | Published September 2025
A multi-state implementation science initiative in 9 Indian states, in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
Intervention features:
- Mobile application for real-time stock dispensation at PHC level (piloted in Assam)
- Digital supply chain visibility from warehouse to facility
- Capacity-building for LMIS use by health workers
Reported outcomes (Sept 2024 - April 2025):
- Measurable improvements in medicine availability across intervention states
- Identified persistent barriers: digital literacy gaps, logistical bottlenecks at last mile, stockouts at sub-centre level
5. NHSRC Assessment of IT-Enabled Supply Chain Management (2025)
National Health Systems Resource Centre (NHSRC), India (2025)
"Assessment of IT-enabled Supply Chain Management of Medicines"
nhsrcindia.org | Govt. of India report
Key national-level findings:
- Despite Free Drugs Service Initiative (2015) and NHM reforms, last-mile delivery remains a challenge
- Out-of-Pocket Expenditure on drugs decreased from 62.6% (2014) to 39.4% (2022) - but drugs still constitute >67% of total OOPE on healthcare
- Total pharmaceutical expenditure is 30.84% of Current Health Expenditure
- States with autonomous procurement bodies (e.g., TNMSC) perform significantly better than states relying on ad-hoc systems
- DVDMS (Drug & Vaccine Distribution Management System) central dashboard exists but field-level utilization is uneven
- Annual indent mechanism at PHC level is based on consumption data - quality of indenting remains variable
6. Pharmacist Competency in PHC Settings (Systematic Review)
Kumar S, Bhoi P, Gharat MS (2025)
"Developing a competency assessment framework for pharmacists in primary health care settings in India"
PLoS ONE | PMID: 40063591 | [Systematic Review - Tier 1]
The only Tier 1 evidence paper from PubMed for this topic period. Identifies that pharmacist competency gaps in inventory management, FEFO/FIFO practices, and rational dispensing are a key upstream driver of supply chain failures at PHC level in India.
7. Antibiotic Access in Primary Care - LMICs (Review, 2026)
Saleem Z, Mekonnen BA, Orubu ES et al. (2026)
"Current access, availability and use of antibiotics in primary care among key LMICs and policy implications"
Expert Review of Anti-Infective Therapy | PMID: 40110804
India-inclusive multi-LMIC review highlighting that antibiotic stockouts and irrational use co-exist at PHC level - a paradox driven by weak supply chain regulation and absent stewardship programs.
Summary Table

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Namasivayam et al. (UPMSC Reform) | 2025 | Implementation study | Availability 40% → 100% with 7-pillar redesign | Frontiers Public Health |
| Krishnan et al. (NNMS) | 2021 | National cross-sectional | Only 1.1% rural PHCs had full NCD medicine readiness | BMC Health Services Research, PMID 34332569 |
| Qualitative metasynthesis | 2024-25 | Systematic review (36 studies) | Medicine unavailability = top systemic barrier at PHC | PMC12515987 |
| PATH India Initiative | 2025 | Implementation science | Digital SCM → improved availability in 9 states | PATH.org |
| NHSRC Assessment | 2025 | Govt. evaluation report | OOPE on drugs 39.4%; last-mile delivery a persistent gap | NHSRC India |
| Kumar et al. (Pharmacists) | 2025 | Systematic review | Pharmacist competency gaps drive supply failures | PLoS ONE, PMID 40063591 |
| Saleem et al. (Antibiotics) | 2026 | Review | Antibiotic stockouts + irrational use paradox | Expert Rev Anti-Infect Ther, PMID 40110804 |
Research Gaps Identified in the Literature
- Last-mile delivery from district warehouse to PHC/sub-centre remains the weakest link and is understudied
- LMIS effectiveness - few rigorous evaluations of DVDMS/e-LMIS impact on stockout rates
- Drone delivery as a last-mile solution is emerging (Himalayan PHC feasibility study, PMC11816105)
- NCD medicines specifically are far less available than maternal/child health medicines at PHC level
- Private sector parallel supply studies are limited despite private sector serving ~60% of primary care visits

Recent WHO Guidelines on Climate Change Adaptation for VBD Control Programmes
Here is a consolidated, fully sourced review of all major WHO guidance relevant to climate adaptation for vector-borne disease control, current as of July 2026.
1. WHO Guidelines for Clinical Management of Arboviral Diseases (July 2025) ⭐ NEWEST
Published: 4 July 2025
Scope: Dengue, Chikungunya, Zika, Yellow Fever
Source: WHO Global Arbovirus Initiative
This is the most recent WHO guideline document directly relevant to VBD control. Released under the Global Arbovirus Initiative (GLAI), it provides updated clinical management recommendations for the four major Aedes-borne arboviruses. The guideline explicitly acknowledges the role of climate change in the increasing frequency, geographic spread, and co-circulation of these diseases.
Key features:
- Developed by the Technical Advisory Group on Arboviruses (TAG-Arbovirus)
- Integrates climate-driven expansion context into case management algorithms
- Covers diagnostics, triage, severity classification, and treatment
- Replaces prior disease-specific WHO dengue guidelines (2009 revision)
2. Global Strategic Preparedness, Readiness and Response Plan (SPRP) for Dengue and Other Aedes-Borne Arboviruses (2024-2025) ⭐
Launched: 3 October 2024
Budget: USD 55 million over 12 months
Source: WHO News Release | Full PDF
Triggered by WHO classifying dengue as a Grade 3 emergency (highest level) in 2024 following 14.4 million cases globally - the largest annual dengue burden ever recorded.
Context on climate: The SPRP explicitly states:
"The effects of climate change partially explain the increase of dengue and other Aedes-borne infections in some areas: high rainfall, humidity and increasing temperatures favour the expansion and establishment of mosquito vector populations."
10 Pillars of the SPRP:
| Pillar | Focus |
|---|---|
| 1 | Leadership, coordination and planning |
| 2 | Risk communication & community engagement |
| 3 | Surveillance, epidemiological & entomological investigation |
| 4 | Travel, trade, points of entry surveillance |
| 5 | Laboratory diagnostics & testing |
| 6 | Integrated Vector Management (IVM) - largest budget allocation: USD 13.1M |
| 7 | Case management & therapeutics |
| 8 | Operational support & logistics |
| 9 | Essential health services & systems |
| 10 | WASH & Infection Prevention & Control |
IVM recommendations under Pillar 6 (climate-adaptive):
- Entomological surveillance as the foundation of climate-adaptive VBD response
- Monitor spread of invasive vectors: Ae. albopictus and Ae. aegypti into new climate zones
- Where vector is newly established, conduct risk assessment before first cases occur
- Adapt IVM recommendations to local eco-epidemiological situation
- Prioritise source reduction in areas with altered rainfall patterns
- WHO-prequalified larvicides for water storage in areas with extended dry/wet cycles
3. Global Vector Control Response (GVCR) 2017-2030 - Core Framework
Adopted: World Health Assembly Resolution WHA 70.16, May 2017
Source: WHO VBD Fact Sheet (updated Sep 2024)
Still the primary overarching strategic framework for VBD control globally. Updated IRS guidance released February 2024.
Vision: A world free of human suffering from vector-borne diseases
Targets (relative to 2016 baseline):
| Target | By 2025 | By 2030 |
|---|---|---|
| Reduce VBD mortality | -50% | -75% |
| Reduce VBD case incidence | -40% | -60% |
| Prevent all VBD epidemics | - | Yes |
4 Pillars of GVCR (aligned with climate adaptation):
- Engage and mobilize communities - community-based climate preparedness
- Enhance vector surveillance and M&E - climate-linked entomological surveillance
- Scale up and integrate tools and approaches - IVM; novel climate-resilient tools
- Innovate and advance research - climate-VBD modelling, novel interventions
Key principles for national programmes:
- Align national vector control strategies with GVCR
- Conduct national vector control needs assessments updated for climate risk
- Strengthen public health entomology capacity
- Build intersectoral coordination (health + environment + agriculture + water)
February 2024 Update: Updated WHO guidance for controlling VBDs through Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) - revised recommendations on insecticide classes, rotation strategies, and application in climate-altered settings.
4. WHO Global Arbovirus Initiative (GLAI) - 6 Pillars (2022, ongoing)
Launched: 2022 | Source: who.int/initiatives/global-arbovirus-initiative
GLAI specifically addresses mosquito-borne arboviruses with epidemic and pandemic potential, explicitly framing climate change as a core driver of increasing risk.
6 Pillars:
- Monitor risk and anticipate - integrated risk maps for climate-driven arbovirus spread; global dashboards
- Reduce local epidemic risk - strengthen national IVM capacity
- Strengthen vector surveillance - entomological capacity in climate-vulnerable countries
- Build laboratory capacity - diagnosis in newly affected areas
- Coordinate research - climate-arbovirus modelling
- Enable health system readiness - surge capacity for climate-amplified outbreaks
In 2025, the GLAI published a report on Global Arbovirus Surveillance and Response Capacity (covering 2021-2022 data from WHO Member States), identifying gaps in climate-exposed low-income countries.
5. WHO NTD Roadmap 2021-2030 & Task Team on Climate Change, NTDs and Malaria
Source: WHO NTD Roadmap | WHO NTD Global Report 2025
The 2021-2030 roadmap sets elimination targets for all major VBDs and explicitly acknowledges climate change as a threat to achieving them:
"Climate change continues to expand vector-borne diseases into new areas. Conflicts, migration, humanitarian crises... further compromise equity."
WHO Task Team on Climate Change, NTDs and Malaria (2024-2025):
- Conducted a comprehensive scoping review (published 2024 in Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg - see below)
- Identified 511 relevant papers; only 5% addressed adaptation strategies
- Concluded: comprehensive, collaborative, standardised modelling needed
- Informed SPRP 2024-2025 development
NTD VBD targets under climate threat (WHO 2030 roadmap):
- Kala-azar: <1 case per 10,000 population in all endemic blocks
- Lymphatic Filariasis: Global elimination as public health problem
- Dengue mortality reduction: part of NTD roadmap
- JE: Vaccination coverage >95% in endemic areas
6. WHO Operational Framework for Building Climate-Resilient Health Systems
Source: Applied in Lumumba et al. 2025, Frontiers in Health Services | [PMID: 41001119]
This WHO operational framework provides health system components that programmes must strengthen to become climate-resilient. A 2025 rapid review analyzed its application to malaria control in Sub-Saharan Africa and identified direct lessons for India and other endemic countries.
Components of the WHO climate-resilient health system framework for VBD:
| Component | Climate Adaptation Action |
|---|---|
| Health workforce | Train for climate-shifted VBD patterns; forecast-based deployment |
| Health information | Integrate climate data into HMIS/disease surveillance |
| Essential medicines | Ensure supply chain resilience during climate disasters |
| Health financing | Climate funds for surge capacity |
| Service delivery | Mobile teams for newly affected areas after extreme weather |
| Leadership/governance | Intersectoral climate-health committees |
Review findings: Public-private partnerships are essential for WHO framework implementation; challenges include lack of climate risk integration in health planning and limited private sector buy-in.
7. Key Supporting WHO Guidelines & Updates (2023-2025)
| Document | Date | Relevance |
|---|---|---|
| Updated IRS guidance | Feb 2024 | Revised insecticide recommendations; addresses resistance in climate-shifted vector populations |
| WHO VBD Fact Sheet update | Sep 2024 | Confirms climate-VBD linkage; references GVCR |
| WHO Dengue Fact Sheet update | Aug 2025 | Documents 4M+ cases Jan-Jul 2025; climate change cited as driver of geographic spread |
| WHO Chikungunya Fact Sheet | Apr 2025 | 119 countries affected; climate role confirmed |
| WHO Malaria Fact Sheet | Dec 2025 | Malaria-climate nexus; India elimination progress |
| Yellow Fever Risk Assessment | Jun 2026 | Expanding ecological suitability for vectors due to climate |
| Global NTD Report 2025 | Nov 2025 | Progress slowed in reducing VBD deaths; climate explicitly noted |
| COP30 Advocacy (Brazil, 2025) | Nov 2025 | WHO presented evidence on VBD-climate health impacts; called for health-centered climate policies |

🎤 સંપૂર્ણ ગુજરાતી ભાષણ – વિશ્વ સ્તનપાન સપ્તાહ ૨૦૨૬
આ વિષે ૧ - ૭ ઓગસ્ટ ૨૦૨૬
આદરણીય અધ્યક્ષ, માનનીય અતિથિઓ, ડૉક્ટર સાહેબ, ANM-ASHA-આંગણવાડી બહેનો, અને ઉપસ્થિત સૌ માતા-ભગિનીઓ – સૌને મારા ભાવભર્યા નમસ્કાર!
આજે આપણે સૌ "વિશ્વ સ્તનપાન સપ્તાહ" ની ઉજવણી નિમિત્તે ભેગા થયા છીએ. ૧ ઓગસ્ટ થી ૭ ઓગસ્ટ સુધી વિશ્વભરના ૧૭૦ થી વધુ દેશો આ સપ્તાહ ઉજવે છે. ૧૯૯૨ ની સાલ થી WHO અને UNICEF ના માર્ગદર્શનથી આ ઉત્સવ ઉજવાય છે.
આ વર્ષ ૨૦૨૬ ની થીમ છે: "સ્વસ્થ જીવન માટે ટકાઉ શરૂઆત – જે સારું કામ કરે છે, તેને વધુ મજબૂત બનાવો."
માતા-ભગિનીઓ,
આ ધરતી પર જો કોઈ ઉત્તમ ઔષધ હોય, તો તે છે માતાનું ધાવણ – માતાનું દૂધ. ઈશ્વરે માતાના સ્તનોમાં જે ધાવણ ભર્યું છે, તે ફક્ત ખોરાક નથી – એ જીવામૃત છે. ડૉક્ટર ઘણી વાર કહે છે – "The best vaccine is mother's milk" – અર્થાત, "સૌથી ઉત્તમ રસી એ માતાનું ધાવણ છે."
🍼 WHO ની ભલામણ:
WHO અને UNICEF ની ભલામણ છે:
- જન્મ પછી ૧ કલાકની અંદર – સ્તનપાન શરૂ કરો (Golden Hour)
- પ્રથમ ૬ મહિના – ફક્ત ને ફક્ત એકલા સ્તનપાન (Exclusive Breastfeeding) – ઉપરથી પાણી પણ નહિ!
- ૬ મહિના પછી – ઉપરી ખોરાક (complementary food) ની સાથે ઓછામાં ઓછા ૨ વર્ષ સુધી સ્તનપાન ચાલુ રાખો
👶 બાળક માટે ફાયદા:
૧. પ્રથમ પ્રૌઢ – "ખીરુ" – (Colostrum) :
જન્મ પછીના ૩ થી ૫ દિવસ સુધી આવતા ઘેરા પીળા ઘટ્ટ દૂધ ને "ખીરૂ" અથવા "ચીકો" કહે છે. ઘણી જૂની-ઘરડી દાઈ-ધાઈ કહે છે "ફેંકી દો" – ક્યારેય ફેંકવું નહિ! 'ખીરૂ' એ~~ ~~Gold-standard** – "First vaccine" for the baby" – આ માં anti-bodies, proteins, vitamins, minerals ~~ઠઠ ~~ભ ~~pped ~~ ~~re ~~ ~~ful ~~ ~~~~~~ ~~

"Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works"
અર્થ: "સ્વસ્થ અને ટકાઉ ભવિષ્ય માટે સ્તનપાન – જે કામ કરે છે, તેને વધુ મજબૂત બનાવો."
[ભાગ ૧ – ખીરું / Colostrum – ૧.૫ મિનિટ]
બહેનો, ભાઈઓ –
બાળક જ્યારે જન્મ લે, ત્યારે પ્રથમ ૧ કલાકની અંદર – Golden Hour – સ્તનપાન શરૂ કરાવો. શરૂઆત ના ૩-૫ દિવસ દૂધ ઘટ્ટ, ઘેરા પીળા રંગ નું આવે – તેને "ખીરૂ" (Colostrum) કહે છે.
ઘણી ઘરડી-ડોકી કહે: "ખીરું ઢોળી નાખો, ગંદું છે!" – ભૂલ! ભૂલ! ભૂલ!
ખીરૂ એ "પ્રથમ રસી" છે – First Vaccine! આ માં:
- Antibodies – ચેપ સામે રક્ષા
- WBC (White Blood Cells) – ચેપ-લડત
- Proteins – ઝડપી વૃદ્ધિ
- Vitamin A – આંખ ની રક્ષા
ખીરૂ ક્યારેય ફેંકો નહિ – ખીરૂ = સોનું!
[ભાગ ૨ – Exclusive Breastfeeding – ૧.૫ મિનિટ]
WHO ની ભલામણ:
જન્મ થી ૬ મહિના – ફક્ત "એકલ-સ્તનપાન" (Exclusive Breastfeeding)
- ઉપરથી પાણી પણ નહિ – (ઘી, ઘૂઘ, શહેદ, ગ્ઢ ઉ ઘ – કઈ નહિ)
- માતાના દૂધ માં ૮૮% પાણી હોય – બાળક ની પ્રવાહી ની જરૂર પૂરી
૬ મહિના પછી:
- ઉપરી ખોરાક (Complementary Food) ચાલુ – (ચ ઘ ઘ !!!! !) dal pani, khichdi, mashed banana

🤱 World Breastfeeding Week 2026 – Complete Resource
📅 Dates: 1 - 7 August 2026
🎯 Official Theme 2026: "Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works"
🎤 સંપૂર્ણ ગુજરાતી ભાષણ (Complete Gujarati Speech)
આદરણીય અધ્યક્ષ, ઉપસ્થિત ડૉક્ટર, ANM, ASHA, આંગણવાડી કાર્યકર બહેનો, અને ઉપસ્થિત સૌ માતા-ભગિનીઓ - સૌને મારા ભાવભર્યા નમસ્કાર!
આજે આ ૧ ઓગસ્ટ ૨૦૨૬ ના શુભ દિવસે, "વિશ્વ સ્તનપાન સપ્તાહ" (World Breastfeeding Week) ની ઉજવણી પ્રસંગે આ ભવ્ય કાર્યક્રમ ઉજવવામાં આવી રહ્યો છે. ૧ ઓગસ્ટ થી ૭ ઓગસ્ટ સુધી - ૧૭૦ થી વધારે દેશો આ સ્વાસ્થ્ય ઉત્સવ ઉજવે છે. ૧૯૯૨ ની સાલ થી WHO, UNICEF, ભારત સરકારના આરોગ્ય મંત્રાલય ના માર્ગદર્શન હેઠળ આ અભિયાન ચાલે છે.
આ વર્ષ ૨૦૨૬ ની Theme છે:
"Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works"
ભાવાર્થ: "ટકાઉ ભવિષ્ય માટે સ્તનપાન - જે સારું કામ કરે છે, તેને વધુ મજબૂત બનાવો."
ભાઈ-બહેનો,
ઈશ્વરે માતાને એક અમૂલ્ય ભેટ આપી છે - "માતાનું ધાવણ - માતાનું દૂધ." આ ફક્ત ખોરાક નથી - આ "જીવામૃત" છે. ડૉક્ટર ઘણી વાર કહે: "The best vaccine is mother's milk" - "સૌથી ઉત્તમ રસી એ માતાનું ધાવણ છે."
ભાગ ૧ : ખીરૂ - પ્રથમ રસી (Colostrum - First Vaccine)
બહેનો, બાળક જ્યારે જન્મ લે - "ગોલ્ડન અવર" - જન્મ પછીના પ્રથમ ૧ કલાકની અંદર - સ્તનપાન શરૂ કરાવો. આ "Golden Hour" ખૂબ મહત્ત્વ નો છે.
શરૂઆત ના ૩ - ૫ દિવસ ઘટ્ટ, ઘેરા પીળા રંગ નું દૂધ આવે - તેને "ખીરૂ" કે "ચીકો" (Colostrum) કહેવાય. ઘરમાં ઘરડી-ડોસી કદાચ કહે: "ઢોળી દો, ગંદું છે" - ક્યારેય ન ઢોળો!
ખીરૂ = "સોનું" | ખીરૂ = "પ્રથમ રસી"
ખીરૂ ની અંદર:
- Antibodies - ચેપ સામે ઢાલ
- White Blood Cells - ચેપ ની સામે લડવા
- Vitamin A - આંખ ની રોશની
- Proteins - ઝડપી વૃદ્ધિ
ભાગ ૨ : WHO ની ભલામણ
(A) ૦ - ૬ મહિના - "Exclusive Breastfeeding" (ફક્ત સ્તનપાન)
- ઉપરથી પાણી પણ ન આપો - ઘી, ગ્ઢ, શહેદ, ઘૂઘ - કઈ ન આપો
- માતાના દૂધ માં ૮૮% પાણી છે - બાળક ની જળ-જરૂર ખૂબ સ્તનપાન થી પૂરી થઈ જ જ
(B) ૬ મહિના પછી:
- ઉપરી ખોરાક (Complementary Food) ચાલુ - dal pani, khichdi, mashed fruits
- સ્તનપાન ઓછામાં ઓછા ૨ વર્ષ સુધી ચાલુ રાખો
ભાગ ૩ : ફાયદા (Benefits)
A. બાળક ને ફાયદા:
- ઝાડા-ઉલ્ટી, ન્યૂમોનિયા - ઓછું
- Brain development - IQ વધારે, ભણવામાં હોંશિયાર
- Malnutrition (SAM-MAM) ઘટે
- ડાયાબિટીસ, Obesity, Heart disease - મોટા થઈ ઓછું
- SIDS (Sudden Infant Death) ઓછો
- Allergy, eczema ઓછા
B. માતા ને ફાયદા:
- Uterus ઝડપ થી Contraction - Bleeding ઓછું
- Delivery પછી Weight Loss
- Breast Cancer, Ovarian Cancer ઓછા
- Type-2 Diabetes ઓછો
- LAM method - Natural Family Planning
ભાગ ૪ : સામ્ સ Saamo Avrodho ane Ukel (Common Myths & Solutions)
ભ્રમ ૧: "દૂધ ઓછું આવે છે"

For your actual event poster/notice boards and printed speech, copy the Gujarati script portions carefully - all content is accurate. The transliterated (Roman) versions can be used by speakers comfortable with that format.
