News - Flooding in Pakistan

With over 3 million people affected by the floods and further flood warnings announced, a major health concern is the outbreak of diarrhoea, cholera and other water related diseases resulting from contaminated waters.

Aquatabs water purification tablets have been used in Pakistan for many years and are well known in previously affected regions. Local stockholdings of Aquatabs water purification tablets in Pakistan are now quickly being reserved so air-shipment of Aquatabs water purification tablets is being undertaken immediately with new stocks arriving within days.

Over 50 million Aquatabs water purification tablets are available in stockholding positions internationally and aid agencies should contact Medentech directly for immediate supply.

Aquatabs are simple to use and make water safe to drink in 30 minutes. The Aquatabs Emergency Handbook outlines the information required to treat water in an Emergency situation such as the one being experienced by Pakistan. For further information email info@medentech.com.
