Providing Medical Solutions

In a country rich in natural resources, simple, basic health solutions are crude, hard to find or impossible to obtain. Many from diseases which are unheard of in most civilized countries or which were long ago defeated.

 

The solutions are simple.
The problems are preventable.

Medical Problems
  • 80% of the population lives in the villages.
  • There are only about 100 doctors and 2,000 nurses total for the entire country of 13 million, Malawi is the country with the fewest doctors per person (Source: Guinness World Records).
  • Most, if not all, of those doctors are in the cities.
  • With Malawi being one of the ten poorest countries in the world with an income per person of around $160 per year, even having medicines available is no guarantee that they people will be able to afford them.
