Many Sudanese people lack basic medical care. More than half a million people are served by a small number of doctors and a handful of clinics. Aid Distribution International serves this area by shipping 40-foot containers packed with medicines.
The containers include antibiotics, antimalarials, antifungals, analgesics, anti-inflammatories, oral rehydration salts and vitamins. ADI has also provided crutches, prostheses and mobility aids for those injured during the war.
We verified the distribution of Life Packs, blankets and medicines. Part of the medical shipment went into the Nuba Mountains, to the forward-most clinics, twelve of them throughout the area.
