- W2471037179 abstract "The development objective of Nutrition, HIV and AIDS Project in Malawi is implementing Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) preparedness activities which include infection control interventions, particularly provision and use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs); and construction of EVD quarantine or treatment centres. Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: (i) noise and vibrations disturbances are expected from metal fabrication activities and other machinery; (ii) solid waste will be generated at the site during construction; (iii) construction of the treatment centre will require cement, sand and concrete; (iv) lead is commonly absorbed into the body by inhalation from use of and or scrapping of lead-based products like paint and when workers breathe in lead as a dust, fume, or mist, their lungs and upper respiratory tract absorb it into the body; (v) construction activities will likely lead to generation of dust, which can reach the people on walking along the M1 road of those doing agriculture work in fields adjacent to the worksite; (vi) the project is currently used for agriculture by people from various places in Blantyre, therefore there will be loss of access to agricultural land by those that are cultivating it; (vii) ground water pollution may occur where the wastes seep into the ground; (viii) the general public and animals may also be exposed to risks of falling into open trenches, especially outside the contractor’s working hours; (viii) improper disposal of human and domestic waste can be a source of diseases and infection; (ix) prostitutes and construction workers infected with STI or HIV and AIDS could interact; (x) EVD is a highly infectious disease and causes fear of being infected among health workers and the general public; (xi) air pollution is expected from smoke from incinerators to be used for destruction of medical wastes; (xii) the EVD treatment centre will use a septic tank and a soak-pit, which can also be a source of water pollution; (xiii) the roof of the EVD treatment centre will serve as a water collector, thereby increasing run-off around the centre, which may also lead to erosion of the banks of the stream, affect aquatic life and increase sedimentation in the Mtabi stream; (xiv) exposure to highly infectious waste, especially by the waste handlers the incinerators operators; (xv) EVD Centre location is far away from the existing health facilities and this may create resentment in relation to daily travelling and cost to the work site; (xvi) the EVD treatment centre is being constructed at an isolated site with low security; (xvii) additional investment will need to be made on a water reservoir tank and backup generator; (xviii) trespassing at the EVD treatment centre by local communities; and (xix) impacts during decommissioning entails closure of the facilities and services." @default.
