On September 24, 452 cartons containing 3,765 kilograms of supplies to fight Ebola arrived in Liberia. These supplies were funded by World Renew and shipped and organized by MAP International. The Christian Health Association of Liberia (CHAL) is using the supplies in their fight against Ebola.
The shipment included thousands of pairs of latex gloves, over a thousand surgical face masks, thermometers, intravenous solution, oral rehydration packets, blood pressure cuffs, stethoscopes, vitamin pills and other basic medicines. Patricia Kamara of CHAL was happy when the suppiles arrived and wrote:
“We are very happy for this donation. It came at a time when health facilities lack medicine and supplies. In fact ,because of the urgent need of the supplies, the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare provided the truck to transport the supplies…”
A couple hours later she added in an email: “Instead of one truck, the Government added another one because the supplies are many!”
CHAL is also doing training sessions for health workers and community volunteers to learn the procedures for treating Ebola patients and stopping the spread of the disease.
Please continue to pray and lift up our staff and partners working to combat this deadly virus.
