During the Covid-19 Pandemic PEDO widely supported the tribal community by carrying out various relief works. We converted our training centre facility into a covid isolation ward. We provided ration packs to the migrant workers who were passing through the district’s major highways. 

We also provided relief materials (ration and hygiene kits) to about 14,500 extremely vulnerable families, who have no sources of livelihood to survive the lockdowns. Our health helpline number also provided instructions to the community in terms of precautions and treatments. 

PEDO is currently working by providing necessary information and facilitation regarding precautions from Covid and the importance of vaccination. And we are also working in 350 villages for making sure that vaccination is done for every eligible individual, this will cover about 3,50,000 population. We are also providing about 2,00,000 face masks to all the students, teachers, Police personnel, and rural health staff. 

We have also provided checkup kits (which included oximeters, thermometers, face shields, masks, etc.) to the 3700 rural health workers, GNM, ANM, and Asha workers, in the district. PEDO also provided 10 oxygen Concentrators to two of the community health centres. We have also arranged for a diesel generator for the Genji CHC.
