The World Health Organization has announced the collapse of the healthcare system in Sudan, particularly in hard-to-reach areas where health facilities have been destroyed or looted.
The World Health Organization spokesperson Christian Lindmeier noted that only 20% to 30% of health facilities are operating at minimum capacity, suffering from shortages of healthcare workers, supplies, vaccines, medicines, and equipment.
Lindmeier stated that medical supplies in Sudan cover only 25% of the needs, and access to The World Health Organization warehouse in Al Jazirah state has been cut off since December 2023. Some states, such as Darfur, have not received medical supplies throughout the past year.
Lindmeier added that diseases have spread significantly in Sudan, with over 1.3 million cases of malaria, 11,000 cases of cholera, 4,600 cases of measles, and 8,509 cases of dengue fever recorded.
Lindmeier emphasized that the World Health Organization ‘s efforts in recent months have helped reduce the number of cases of cholera, dengue fever, and malaria.
Sudan is currently embroiled in a devastating conflict between the Sudanese army, led by Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, and the Rapid Support Forces, led by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo (Hemetti), which has resulted in approximately 15,000 deaths and more than 8 million displaced persons and refugees, according to the United Nations.
