What's it like to work in a war zone in Sudan? How do doctors handle receiving so many patients at once? How can we provide emergency medical care with limited staff and supplies? |
We discuss these questions and more on our new podcast, The Humanitarian Lens. In the first episode, our host Avril Benoît, chief executive officer of Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières in the United States (MSF USA), speaks with Dr. Mohammed Fadlalla, a physician who recently returned from an assignment in Sudan.
People across Sudan have urgent medical needs made worse by war, massive displacement, and access restrictions. The country's health system is on the brink of collapse. This crisis is unfolding amid unprecedented cuts to international humanitarian aid by the US and other leading donors.
In this episode, Dr. Fadlalla shares his experience coordinating MSF's medical activities in two hospitals in the city of Omdurman. He talks to Avril about working in close partnership with Sudanese colleagues and Ministry of Health staff to provide care to communities.
