Things were looking pretty bright for the CTC the last few days... it was basically empty!
But keep on praying! We're not out of the woods yet...
Yesterday we had a man come into the CTC with some dehydration, and other typical symptoms. We admitted him and put him on an IV. Then there was another man that came in earlier this morning with some mild symptoms, so we just put him on observation...
Around breakfast time, though, a whole crowd came to the gate, bearing an elderly lady who was stricken with Cholera. The team got right to work, washing her down and prepping her for admission.
Below are some pictures...
Concerned friends and relatives of the lady that was carried
in to the CTC today.
You can see the lady sitting on a makeshift stretcher/chair contraption.
I'm not sure how far away they traveled, but it must
not have been too comfortable...
Here's the man that was admitted for observation this morning...
seemed like he was doing ok :)
The guards began the de-contamination process
with those who carried her to the CTC.
Here's a closer look at the chair contraption...
Pretty ingenious, I'd say!
Jared and Virginia worked on getting an IV into the lady...
Those veins can be hard to find, when the patient is dehydrated!
Once they were done, she was covered up, and
resting peacefully.
Faithful Jared... cleaning up again :)
