Additional Information / Shotlist The peaks of violence in Reynosa have a direct effect on the lives of its inhabitants, on their access to health services, on their mental health and on people's ability to move around the city. Of every four patients the teams assist, one has been a victim of some type of violence. MSF is providing comprehensive healthcare at a general medicine clinic in one of the neighborhoods of the city, and also operates mobile clinics to provide care at two shelters for migrants and deportees from the United States. Another significant part of MSF’s work in Reynosa consists of providing medical care to victims of sexual violence, including prophylaxis for STI.
