The team handed over a significant amount of cholera supplies today to St Francois de Sales clinic in Vaudreuil, thanks to Coram. They are receiving around 15 patients a day and treating them with ors +/- IV fluid to stabilise before referring onto the gymnasium, the closest CTC. Although they are well staffed, they have so far received no support in obtaining cholera supplies to support their service.
They were very grateful for the supplies we gave.
