Chile: MSF Supporting Hospitals, Organizing Mobile Clinics, Sending Supplies
Ten days after an 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck central Chile, the Doctors Without Borders/Médecins San Frontières (MSF) teams that have travelled through the affected areas are focusing their interventions on the most urgent needs: supporting health structures that are caring for large numbers of patients, re-establishing primary health care services, distributing basic necessities, and offering mental health assistance to the affected population.
…
MSF teams on the ground have been struck by the solidarity of the Chilean population. Many Chilean doctors and psychologists are doing volunteer work while others have been collecting food and clothes to distribute to their affected countrymen.
