Primary Medical Care East Sumba is not a theory, it is 798 patients and 1,421 cases in three months, most of them children and women, treated where no doctor is present. Through Kawan Sehat agents, we bring first aid, medicines, prevention and referrals into ultra remote villages. Without this program, these cases simply stay untreated.
Malaria continues to pose a daily threat in this area. Through Kawan Against Malaria, we monitor cases, test all fevers, protect homes, and educate families. The use of bed nets, spraying, and prompt treatment turns statistical data into lives that endure quietly, rather than ending prematurely.
