Medizin im Busch

Medicine in the bush

Medical care is difficult to access in South Sudan, especially for the rural population. As a result, many people continue to die from diseases that are actually curable, malnutrition and pregnancy complications. These are treated in the bush clinics in Nyal and Rumbek.
