Additional Information / Shotlist (txt) Kario camp – Sudan

(txt) Since December 2013, the conflict in South Sudan has displaced many people into Sudan.

(txt) They are fleeing violence and looking for food, water and a stable income.

(txt) Vanessa Rossi
MSF Field Coordinator

(itw) The camp is hosting more or less 20,000 South Sudanese.

(itw) In Kario camp, it is still really temporary.

(itw) At the moment, they are living in shelter. Sometimes they have to share the latrines outside of their houses.

(itw) More and more from the distant villages are coming here to our facility to get treated here because they don't have access anywhere else.

(txt) MSF set up its health centre there in July 2017.

(txt) The mobile clinic does the first screening, then refers the sick people and malnourished children to the MSF facilities or the hospital.

(txt) People arrive in the MSF facilities with different morbidities due to the living conditions in the camp.

(txt) Dr Mohamed Zakria
MSF Doctor

(itw) During the rainy season the main problems were usually diarrhoea and malaria, especially during August and September.

(itw) Recently, because the weather is becoming very, the living conditions and the wind and dust, acute respiratory infections is the main problem, especially among children under five.

(txt) Since last year, the number of patients has increased in Kario Camp.

(txt) In one month, MSF provided almost 4,000 consultations.
