| Keväistä viikkoa!
Yhtäkkiä kevät hiipikin tänne, ja nyt aurinko paistaa ja kuulin jo lintujen lauluakin (varma kevään merkki)! Tuokoon tämä ihana sää kaikkien meidän arkeen vähän lisää valoa ja energiaa. Ihanaa viikkoa ja tsemppiä arkeen <3
Aurinkoisin terveisin, Emilia Laukkanen Viestintäpäällikkö

| Viikon hyvä uutinen: Chile on nyt kokonaan vapaa leprasta
WHO on julistanut Chilen ensimmäisenä Amerikkojen maana sekä vasta toisena maana koko maailmassa vapaaksi leprasta. Edellinen havaittu tapaus on vuodelta 1993, mutta senkin jälkeen Chile on valonnan, raportoinnin ja jatkuvan valmiuden kautta monitoroinut tilannetta. |
