What a great thing. Welcome to our segment on good deeds.
00:30
We will introduce you in detail.
00:32
But the package we just saw, the name of the person mentioned,
00:35
how he has set an example of serving humanity above any distinction.
00:40
We will tell you in detail.
00:42
And he has dedicated his life, every moment.
00:44
What a great thing.
00:46
For those people whose loved ones run away from them.
00:52
The disease of cold.
00:54
It has been considered to be a disease for centuries.
01:00
That it will affect each other.
01:02
And people used to avoid their family members and loved ones.
01:07
But Dr. Utfao did a great job in serving humanity.
01:12
Our guest today is M.A.L.C.
01:16
We will talk more about this institution.
01:20
What services are being provided?
01:22
What is the vision ahead?
01:24
We will introduce the guests.
01:26
And then we will know about this journey from them.
01:28
We have Mewan Lobo with us.
01:30
He is the CEO of M.A.L.C.
01:32
Thank you so much.
01:34
We have Dr. Ali Murtaza.
01:36
He is the Director of Programs at M.A.L.C.
01:38
Mewan, we will start with you.
01:40
Tell us how this institution was established in 1956.
01:44
What is the journey?
01:46
Can you tell us about it from the background?
01:50
The program that was registered in 1956.
01:56
But before that, in the early 50s.
01:59
This religious congregation, Daughters of the Heart of Mary.
02:03
Dr. Utfao belonged to this congregation.
02:07
He started working in McLeod Road.
02:10
In those days, there was a colony.
02:12
We do not use the word leper anymore.
02:14
The patients of leprosy used to live there.
02:18
There were only sisters to work there.
02:21
Because the common people did not go there.
02:23
They were afraid to go there.
02:25
And the people who helped them.
02:27
The persons affected by leprosy.
02:30
The ones who already had leprosy.
02:32
They used to work with them.
02:34
You can say handful of lay volunteers.
02:38
One of them was a famous Pakistani doctor.
02:42
Dr. Zarina Fazal Boy.
02:44
She used to work there.
02:47
When this work started.
02:50
Sometimes I think.
02:53
She was not worried about her life.
02:57
Because at that time, there was no advance information about this.
03:01
There was no treatment.
03:03
She knew that there was no treatment for this.
03:07
She started working.
03:09
Dr. Fau came in 1960.
03:11
When Dr. Fau came in 1960.
03:13
She was a medical doctor.
03:15
But she used to do dressing.
03:17
Today, there are so many doctors who do dressing.
03:19
There is no one.
03:21
But she thought.
03:23
Patients are coming from all over Pakistan.
03:25
If I keep treating here.
03:27
We have to block the source.
03:30
Then she said.
03:32
We had a driver.
03:34
She took him in a jeep.
03:36
And went to all over Pakistan.
03:38
Then the provincial government of Pakistan.
03:40
The health department.
03:42
They were convinced.
03:44
These patients are coming from all over Pakistan.
03:46
They convinced the government.
03:48
To bring their people.
03:50
For this treatment.
03:52
Then we established a national training institute.
03:56
In Karachi.
03:58
Workers from all over Pakistan.
04:00
They come here.
04:02
They are given training.
04:04
We were sitting.
04:06
We were talking about this.
04:08
The jazaam that has been controlled.
04:10
This is done by paramedic workers.
04:12
Okay.
04:14
Dr. Ruth Fau was the only doctor.
04:16
Who used to go to the field with them.
04:18
And now.
04:20
The doctors in our institution.
04:22
I also pay tribute to them.
04:24
Because.
04:26
For these doctors.
04:28
The area of jazaam.
04:30
It's a dead end.
04:32
They can't practice anywhere else.
04:34
They have dedicated their lives.
04:36
Dr. Ali Murtaza.
04:38
Who is sitting with me.
04:40
Dr. Mutair Zia.
04:42
And other doctors.
04:44
I pay a lot of tribute to them.
04:46
Once again.
04:48
Thank you for your contribution.
04:50
And for your time.
04:52
If we talk about MLC.
04:54
Before that.
04:56
Let's talk about this.
04:58
Is it true.
05:00
That if you get infected.
05:02
And if you go to the patient.
05:04
You will also get infected.
05:06
Please tell us about this.
05:08
It is an infectious disease.
05:10
But it is said.
05:12
95% of human beings.
05:14
They have a natural immunity.
05:16
Okay.
05:18
They get infected.
05:20
But the disease doesn't show up.
05:22
Only a few people are left.
05:24
Who have this disease.
05:26
It shows itself.
05:28
It is generally seen.
05:30
Untreated patients.
05:32
Who have not been treated.
05:34
Their family members.
05:36
They are at the highest risk.
05:38
That it will spread from one to another.
05:40
Because.
05:42
And it is also possible.
05:44
That there is a tendency in the family members.
05:46
That is also possible.
05:48
About jazaam.
05:50
It is such an old disease.
05:52
That.
05:54
Jesus.
05:56
Miracles.
05:58
It has been mentioned.
06:00
But the complete information.
06:02
About this disease.
06:04
Is not correct.
06:06
Research is still going on.
06:08
There is a reason for this.
06:10
WHO has a list.
06:12
Neglected tropical diseases.
06:14
The disease.
06:16
Which is not given much attention.
06:18
The exact mechanism.
06:20
How it is transmitted.
06:22
That is also not clear.
06:24
Because one animal.
06:26
Science has progressed so much.
06:28
In every field.
06:30
And you are saying.
06:32
There is still a lot of research.
06:34
There are still many questions.
06:36
Whose answers.
06:38
People do not have.
06:40
And you.
06:42
You are doing services there.
06:44
As Sir said.
06:46
It is a dead end.
06:48
Thank you so much.
06:50
If we talk about MALC.
06:54
Cobra patients.
06:56
Cuberculosis.
06:58
About which.
07:00
People run away.
07:02
From such patients.
07:04
And the people who are not well.
07:06
Who can be treated.
07:08
There are three departments.
07:10
We do it in five.
07:12
When we controlled leprosy in 1996.
07:14
WHO had set a goal.
07:16
In Pakistan.
07:18
Leprosy should be controlled by 2000.
07:20
We did it four years ago.
07:24
As we were controlling.
07:26
Because in Pakistan.
07:28
There was no control.
07:30
In Gilgit-Baltistan.
07:32
Kashmir.
07:34
Karachi was the last place.
07:36
To control leprosy.
07:38
Karachi had different challenges.
07:40
As we were controlling.
07:42
We included other disciplines.
07:44
We combined.
07:46
Tuberculosis with leprosy.
07:48
Blindness with leprosy.
07:50
We are working in disability.
07:54
Mother and child health.
07:56
These are diseases of poverty.
07:58
In those areas.
08:00
Where.
08:02
Common facilities cannot reach.
08:04
How many centers are working?
08:06
Nationwide.
08:08
Our program.
08:10
Public-private partnership.
08:12
Outside.
08:14
Karachi.
08:16
157 centers.
08:20
90%.
08:22
Government.
08:24
Centers.
08:26
We support.
08:30
Logistics.
08:32
Transport.
08:34
Per diem.
08:36
Incentives.
08:38
If we talk about.
08:40
Dr. Rutfau.
08:42
His.
08:44
Respect.
08:46
People.
08:48
After his death.
08:50
Did MLC face any challenges?
08:52
I will say.
08:54
I will not say.
08:56
Until.
08:58
Dr. Rutfau was not known.
09:00
I am being very frank.
09:02
Someone asked.
09:04
Dr. Rutfau.
09:06
There was not much marketing.
09:08
People do not know you.
09:10
He said.
09:12
Our institution is anonymous.
09:14
People do not know him.
09:16
The people we serve.
09:18
They are anonymous.
09:20
People do not know about them.
09:22
We will not do branding.
09:24
Yes.
09:26
When he died.
09:28
The day he died.
09:30
The following Saturday.
09:32
We will do his funeral.
09:34
There was media coverage.
09:36
There was a hype.
09:38
People got to know.
09:40
When he got a state funeral.
09:42
People got to know.
09:44
Exactly.
09:46
Before that.
09:48
Our Pakistanis.
09:50
This is the woman.
09:52
Who served our people.
09:54
The program he started.
09:56
We will support this program.
09:58
Inshallah.
10:00
Dr. Rutfau.
10:02
Do you have anything to share?
10:04
With regards to this disease.
10:06
With regards to MLC.
10:08
With regards to this disease.
10:10
The challenge is.
10:12
To get a diagnosis as soon as possible.
10:14
The symptoms.
10:16
Can you tell us?
10:18
The initial symptoms are.
10:20
A bruise on the skin.
10:22
A bruise.
10:24
Which is not being treated.
10:26
And it is swollen.
10:28
The patient should think.
10:30
That this can happen.
10:32
What kind of tests can be done?
10:34
Usually.
10:36
A simple sensation test.
10:38
You just touch and see.
10:40
Then there is a test.
10:42
A small incision.
10:44
In the ear.
10:46
Where there are bumps.
10:48
You take out the tissue.
10:50
And see it in the microscope.
10:52
So that the bacteria can be identified.
10:54
What should be done immediately?
10:56
If there is such a situation.
10:58
The nearest MLC centers.
11:00
In Karachi.
11:02
The number of MLC centers.
11:04
In Pakistan.
11:06
Half of them are in Karachi.
11:08
And the rest are in Sindh.
11:10
This is an area.
11:12
Where more attention is needed.
11:14
And a dermatologist.
11:16
Who is an expert.
11:18
We need their cooperation.
11:20
People come to them.
11:22
To identify the patients.
11:24
And refer them.
11:26
If the patients are not identified.
11:28
Then it leads to infertility.
11:30
And then.
11:32
You kill the bacteria.
11:34
But infertility.
11:36
Is lifelong.
11:38
Think about it for a moment.
11:40
If this happens to a person.
11:42
With a cold.
11:44
As you said.
11:46
There has been a stigma for centuries.
11:48
Sir.
11:50
Those who are watching.
11:52
Those who are supporting.
11:54
MLC has done its work on this basis.
11:56
And some people.
11:58
Who have been inspired.
12:00
How will you invite them?
12:02
To support this institution.
12:04
Already I will say.
12:06
When I joined this program.
12:08
In 1990.
12:10
At that time.
12:12
More than 90% funding came.
12:14
From the German speaking community.
12:16
Now it is.
12:18
Thank God.
12:20
The support is 50-50.
12:22
Last year.
12:24
We.
12:26
Launched a strategy.
12:28
Roadmap towards.
12:30
Zero leprosy.
12:32
WHO.
12:34
Announced in 2021-2030.
12:36
Leprosy can be eliminated.
12:38
In some countries.
12:40
In Pakistan.
12:42
We rolled out this strategy.
12:44
Last year.
12:46
If in 2023.
12:48
We had to implement it.
12:50
At that time.
12:52
We got a bad news.
12:54
Our international funding.
12:56
Was cut.
12:58
They say.
13:00
In the name of God.
13:02
We will do it.
13:04
When the Sindh government.
13:06
Got to know.
13:08
We will support you.
13:10
We are willing to walk.
13:12
The last mile with you all.
13:14
From 2024-2030.
13:16
Whatever is needed for leprosy.
13:18
We are ready to support you.
13:22
I can't give a message.
13:24
I will say.
13:26
This program.
13:28
Is serving such people.
13:30
Who are not in the mainstream.
13:32
Who do not live in cities.
13:34
In such areas.
13:36
Where many people.
13:38
Can't imagine.
13:40
There are such areas.
13:42
Our field workers.
13:44
I will say.
13:46
They go.
13:48
There is no house there.
13:50
They go to sleep.
13:52
They spend the whole day.
13:54
There is no washroom.
13:56
This is the legacy.
13:58
You are an example.
14:00
Thank you so much.
14:02
Thank you so much.
14:04
All the team members.
14:06
All the field workers.
14:08
I salute you all.
14:10
May God keep you safe.
14:12
Thank you so much.
14:14
Thank you so much.
14:16
Thank you so much.
14:18
What a great service.
14:20
A practical example has been established.
14:22
The basic character.
14:24
Is of such a personality.
14:26
Everyone is proud of his character.
14:28
Without any discrimination.
14:30
He has laid the foundation.
14:32
We all move forward on our own.
14:34
And do our part.
14:36
InshaAllah.
14:38
Thank you very much.
14:40
And a lot of applause.
14:42
That's it.
