This Mother was someone I saw often ~
in Waspam, Rio Coco, Nicaragua.
- her Young Child had Health Issues but she was taking her to the Clinic.
She has a Skin Disorder.... In this area (N.E. Nicaraguan border area ) (Now RAAN area)
- the Diet was meagre with a marked deficiency in protein and vitamins.
There was a high incidence of Kwashiorkor and other forms of Advanced Malnutrition especially in children under the age of 2 years.
The Main Diseases were respiratory infections, incl. tuberculosis..
.. also intestinal and skin parasites, diarrhoea, malaria and malnutrition..
In one village it was easy to hear the sound of whooping cough by the school house.....
(MSF’s first mission was to the Nicaraguan capital, Managua, where a 1972 earthquake had destroyed most of the city and killed between 10,000 and 30,000 people.The organization, today is known for its quick response in an emergency. )

The Nobel Peace Prize .. Medicins Sans Frontieres.
In 1999, MSF was awarded the International Nobel Peace Prize, "in recognition of the organisation's pioneering humanitarian work on several continents." The award honoured the work of MSF relief workers bringing medical assistance to people in more than 80 countries — over 20 of which are in conflict.
The proceeds from the Nobel Peace Prize have been used by MSF to establish a Neglected Disease Fund. The fund is designed to support pilot projects world-wide that facilitate clinical development, production, procurement and distribution of Neglected Disease treatments.

( Selling on eBay ? .. it is simple to donate a percentage of sales directly to MSF .. )
As many know i work in a military health clinic. They have limited the people I may need to see as I am the federal health insurance subject matter expert. Members of the CAF cannot be covered under provincial health cate as per the Canada Health Act so I make sure a) the medical specialists they see are paid for services, b) that military members can get reimbursed if they have had to pay for health care both in Canada and abroad and a whole lot of other stuff related to their health care coverage. I want to ensure I am doing all I can to make sure i am doing all I can as social distancing in the hallways is not always possible. Thanks to one if our former nurses who made me several masks - you should wash them daily is my thinking. I hope you are all staying safe and if you are working thank you.
A neat idea: the park benches in front of the healthclinic in Tortosa have been painted by students of different schools and institutes. The names of the artists are on a little metal plaque on the bench.

These photos were taken after the Rio Coco had flooded and the Red Cross, U.S.AID and the Panamanian Air Force were all assisting to alleviate the problems of the resulting situation...The flood was in December 1979 and these photos taken January 1980.
I would like to believe that the situation is better now but all of Nicaragua has it's Problems including Floods and Hurricanes......and severe Tropical Storms.

A child peers around the corner in the waiting room of the HIV Comprehensive Care Clinic of Meru District Hospital in Kenya’s Eastern province as two pediatricians stand in the background. The clinic has a newly renovated pediatric ward, with private rooms for HIV testing, and counseling for children, pregnant women, and families. Counselors lead children in song and play, providing a safe space to fight stigma, share experiences, and teach important lessons on how to stay healthy. The effort is part of a USAID-funded consortium project, which partners with the government of Kenya and other organizations to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV and to provide HIV/AIDS care and treatment.

A nurse takes dried blood spot samples from an infant to test for HIV in a maternal and child health ward in a Malawi clinic. Groundbreaking advances in HIV testing allow mothers to learn their child’s HIV status much sooner than before. Dried blood spots are particularly useful for HIV testing in resource-limited settings, and can be stored and transported to health facilities without being refrigerated. With dried blood spot testing, infants can now be tested for HIV as early as 6 weeks old. This is crucial because, without early identification and treatment, half of all HIV-positive children will die before their second birthdays. USAID recently concluded a five-year project in Malawi to prevent mother-to-child transmission. August 2010.

Photo Caption: A healthcare worker gives an ATS injection to a pregnant woman at her clinic on the remote island of Sunderban. Reaching across the hospital bed to maintain social distancing measures, her face is concealed by the swathes of silken yellow fabric fashioned into a face mask.The makeshift PPE is a visual reminder of the struggles healthcare workers face in rural settings. Here, boats are the only form of transportation and supply deliveries are irregular. As one of only three nurses on the island charged with serving the diverse health needs of the 20,000 strong population, innovation is required

In Swaziland, just before sunset, a young girl tests out a new seesaw on a playground built by the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation at the Mkhulamini Clinic in Swaziland. Volunteers for the foundation built the playground and a covered waiting area for patients and their children attending the clinic for HIV testing, counseling, and care and treatment. This year, it will launch the USAID-funded, five-year program, Eliminating Pediatric AIDS in Swaziland, to expand services to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Swaziland is home to the world’s most severe HIV/AIDS epidemic. Women and children are particularly affected, with 42 percent of pregnant women who receive antenatal care testing HIV-positive.
