  1. MID-BCC Flash Report Influenza-like Illnesses SMS Reporting – Wave 4(Animal Health) • Q1. What did you personally do last week in your village regarding animal diseases? • (base: n=60 villages) • Comment: Main activities include providing information on where to seek treatment for animals and informing the village veterinarian. Just under half of the villages coordinate with the District Agricultural Office and conduct media campaign on animal health. • Q2. What materials did you personally find most useful in working on health issues this past week? • (base: n=60 villages) • Comment: One third rated mobile phones as the most useful tool when dealing with health issues. It is possible that the mobile phone panel has influenced this result. Other than that, talking points and IEC materials are seen to be most useful. • Q3. To Whom does the Lao Women's Union generally report in case of an animal disease outbreak in your village? (base: n=60 villages) Comment: Most of the reporting is directed to the village veterinarian or village chief, followed by local government officials. Reporting directly to newspapers or other media is less common. • Q4. Who did you personally speak to last week about sick or dead animals, if anyone? (base: n=60 villages) • Comment: Nearly all the villages have spoken to friends and families about sick or dead animals in the past week and around two thirds have also talked to a veterinarian. Around half of the villages also talked to the village chief and local government. Communication to other groups has been less common. Data collection for this survey was conducted using mobile phone technology. The data was collected on 4 April, 2011, from 60 villages located in and around Vientiane, Savannakhet, LuangNamtha, and Bokeo in Lao PDR. Participants in the panel were recruited by AED from the Lao Women’s Union (LWU). For more information please contact Dr. Cecile Lantican, Country Coordinator, AED Lao PDR at clantican@aed.org
