Since the beginning of May, and in connection with Operation Wuambushu, a series of events has led to a significant disruption of access to health services. In 2019, 45% of residents over the age of 15 said they had had to give up care.
Today, Doctors of the World calls for these places of care to be sanctuarized. "We need an official position from the health authorities on this," says the president of the NGO, Florence Rigal. "There are risks of worsening situations, decompensation, delays in access to care," she adds.
