The ARV treatment program run by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in Khayelitsha outside Cape Town, South Africa is one of the longest running ARV treatment programs in sub-Saharan Africa. MSF is seeing patients failing first-line treatment in increasing numbers and others not responding to available and affordable second-line treatment regimens. It is a wake-up call to all those in the global health field who no longer consider AIDS an emergency.

Kala Azar: "A Disease of the Poorest of the Poor" MSF - 1,070 views - 2 months ago
Every year, kala azar kills more than 50,000 thousand people worldwide. A neglected disease, the treatment for it was developed in the 1930s and requires a long, painful course of intra-muscular injections. The treatment is also prohibitively expensive for many of those who have the disease. In Kacheliba, West Pokot District, Kenya, MSF provides free treatment for kala azar.

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971.

Today, MSF provides aid in nearly 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened by violence, negligence, or catastrophe, primarily due to armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from health care, or natural disasters. MSF provides independent, impartial assistance to those most in need. MSF reserves the right to speak out to bring attention to neglected crises, to challenge inadequacies or abuse of the aid system, and to advocate for improved medical treatments and protocols.

MSF is an international movement made up of 19 associative organizations.

Thank you MSF for the many lives you are saving! MSF vaccinates hundreds of thousands of children for measles and treats hundreds of thousands for malnutrition. MSF is also travels to the worst war zones and disaster areas to help people in danger.

MSF is incredible!

hello fellows! I feel bound to tell ya that there's nothing more beautiful in the entire world than what you do. I'm finishing college (Medicine) in about 2 years, and joining MSF has crossed my mind a lot these days. I decided that, after doing my specialization, I'll stay a little while there. Even though that's gonna take a little while, I'd love to know in advance, how your job really is. Could you tell me in just few words?

Keep on the worderful job!
