RIYADH: A health awareness campaign in several languages has been launched by the Madinah Health Cluster for Hajj pilgrims, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Tuesday.
The campaign, being run in conjunction with the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah and the Madinah Development Authority, started as the first group of pilgrims arrived in Madinah earlier this month.
The initiative involves 97 smart display screens at locations including Prince Mohammad bin Abdulaziz International Airport, the Haramain High Speed Railway station, shuttle buses, pilgrim reception centers, malls and the health cluster’s facilities.
It also uses various media and social platforms to publish posts in English, French, Urdu, Persian and Arabic. Field tours by health personnel target places frequented by pilgrims, including hotels.
Messages cover issues such as the dangers of direct sun exposure, heat exhaustion, dehydration, food poisoning, first aid, personal hygiene and other health topics.
