Effutu: Afenyo Markin Supports Mumbies Foundation With Multi Billion Viral Load Machine To Fight Hepatitis B

After publications for a a viral load machine for the testing and treatment of hepatitis B within Effutu and it's environs in February 2023, Mumbies Foundation will soon get relieve.

The appeal has get response, as the Member of Parliament for Effutu, Alexander Afenyo Markin has assured to secure the multi billion viral load machine for the NGO to aid in their quest to fight hepatitis B.

People in the area have to travel long distances to Accra or Cape Coast to test for the disease and further seek medication because there are no places available for such services, a situation that has put huge stress on the people for a very long time.

Meanwhile, the emergence of Mumbies Foundation and support from the deputy majority leader over the past years has become a major relief to the people who had to travel long distances to seek for medical support.

The foundation has organised many health screening exercises with partners for the people in Effutu to have easy access to testing and other medical assistance as far as hepatitis B is concerned.



However, the absence of the viral load machine has been a major setback in the work of the foundation despite it's commitment to helping deal with the disease.

It is, however, refreshing to note that the MP has agreed to purchase the machine for Mumbies Foundation to enable it continue the fight against hepatitis B within Effutu and it's environs.

Mr. Israel Adorbley, Project Manager for Mumbies Foundation has expressed gratitude to Hon. Alexander Afenyo Markin for his immense contributions over the years and also commended him for his preparedness to purchase the machine for them to help in their activities.

The machine is expected to cost $25, 000.00 dollars.
