SCRIPT

Carola Buscemi, paeditrician, MSF Hangha hospital, Kenema:
Malaria, malnutrition, diarrhea are still the biggest killer here in SL.

TEXT ON SCREEN
Sierra Leone has among the highest child deaths globally.
105 per 1000 births live
In the context of a pandemic,
access to health care is a great challenge

Carola Buscemi, paeditrician, MSF Hangha hospital, Kenema]:
161533
We have started to see some of the terrible indirect consequences of the pandemic.
Malaria, malnutrition, diarrhoea are still the biggest killers here in Sierra Leone.

Carola Buscemi, paeditrician, MSF Hangha hospital, Kenema]:
Many children arrive late to ER, possibly because their parents are now scared to bring their child to any medical facilities.
Many of them arrive in serious and critical conditions,
and sometimes unfortunately there’s nothing more we can do for them.

TEXT ON SCREEN
If detected sooner, Malaria deaths are preventable
In response to a community’s fear
of travelling to seek healthcare,
MSF brings healthcare to children.

TEXT ON SCREEN
In the remote chiefdoms of Gorama Mende and Wandor, [MAP]
MSF supports the Ministry of Health and Sanitation (MoHS).

Mohammed Turay
It’s very much important to treat patients in the community
Because we know that malaria cases can be treated by the community health worker very easily
The bed net is important since the malaria rate is increasing.
The bed nets will be used by the caretakers to reduce the rate of malaria in the community.
the community people can protect themselves by using the bed net.
