JOURNEY OF SAVING LIVES. Today I turn exactly 2 years, one day of working in the Intermediate Hospital Katutura (IHK). It has been such a remarkable journey that has taught me numerous lessons in the Public Sector and indeed something I can make use of for the future. People always ask, what is a Lawyer (student🌚) is doing at the hospital, 😅 some even thought I changed courses or something but nah, I'm entirely Administrative Based and yeah, still a student. I've experienced how critical working knowing you have people's lives depending on you. Decisions made over the years were the border between someone's survival or someone's death. This made me understand how vital it is to work on matters as they arise as we are doing it for the Namibian people. I've been working under the Leadership of Dr. N.T Amagulu (Right), the Medical Superintendent of the Intermediate Hospital Katututa. She's hard at work and does not compromise when it's issues that involve patients under zero circumstances. If she requests a certain equipment to be procured, it must be done timeously. Very energetic, well learned and truly grateful for all the mentoring, guidance and inspiration. Despite the various social backlash and the political criticisms on the state of the hospital, we must give credit where it's due and commend Health workers for their tireless efforts including students and interns. IHK is the biggest referral hospital in the country, on top of the patients in the Khomas Region, we further received 65 seater buses of patients coming from other 13 regions including those critical ones in Ambulances hence the pressure is not a joke colleagues! All in all, I didn't think I'd actually enjoy working in the hospital, it was scary at first (COVID-19 times and I was once in the same elevator with a corpse😭) very traumatic but it's how life goes. I've done all this while stil a student, NANSO National Leader, and other extra curricular activities, hence serious multitasking comrades.😂 From this juncture, I'm highly motivated to see what the future holds further grow professionally. I'm still here(IHK) in case you come buy, HMU.😁 PS. Lawyer- Health worker

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you.

Towards the end of 2021, I had a scheduled outside trip, but in order to travel , I needed to get Vaccinated and as such I chose J & J. A few hours later after the vaccination, my body started heating up, got a headache and developed a bit of a cold. Since I was at work that day, I got permission to go home and rest a bit and also let the body get through with the vaccination side effects. To calm the situation down a bit, I took painkillers which fairly worked. In overall, the side effects lasted for a day and few hours and my body was back on track. Anyways colleagues, please ensure that you get vaccinated in order to protect yourself as the COVID 19 cases keep on rising.

From time to time people tend to spread rumours about COVID-19 such as not needing a vaccine because one already got COVID. For clarity sake, Natural immunity length is unknown and hence the vaccine fights reinfection. As such, whether you got it already or not you should stop get vaccinated. Ps. get vaccinated if you haven’t already. #GetVaccinated #COVID19 #Namibia #Health

As NANSO is gearing up for Access to Education Campaign in January, I had an engagement with NSFAF today pertaining the NSFAF Applications and pending unresolved students issues. #AccesToEducationCampaign #NANSO #PowerToTheStudents @nanso_official

As we convene the NANSO General Students Council in the Omaheke Region, the Cattle Country at Kalahari Convention Centre. #NANSO #PowerToTheStudents @nanso_official @omaheke_nanso

Having a strong support and immune system activates protection against COVID-19 and one can freely be in large crowds as they're protected and ready to fight against COVID-19. Don't forget to get vaccinated💉 #COVIDVACCCINE #HEALTH #namibia

And with that, the 2022 Season comes to an end.✔ #2022

Vaccination in nature serves as a preventative exercise required regularly to protect ourselves from future surges and not necessarily for treating disease symptoms or confirmed diseases. If you haven't gotten your vaccine yet, kindly Visit the Robert Mugabe Clinic, Khomasdal Health Centre (Clinic), Katutura Health Centre, Langerhans Pharmacy (Fee required), Winchester Clinic, Okulyangava Health Centre and other state clinics in the Khomas Region. #COVID #COVIDVACCCINE #WHO #health
