Anna sees a doctor for the first time.
This is a true horror story. It starts out with:
Cholera, dysentery, diarrhea, encephalitis, gastroenteritis, hepatitis, leptospirosis, poliomyelitis, salmonellosis, typhoid fever – among many others.
Those are just a few of the diseases from drinking polluted water.
Medical help to those who need it most
Health begins with a healthy mouth
These are some of the diseases volunteer medical staff face when they leave the comforts of home to devote time to help those who depend on them.
While some teams focus on prevention by providing safe drinking water, others face the daunting challenge of helping those who are already suffering the tragic effects of drinking polluted water.
This is a photo-tour of some of these volunteers at work.
