The WHO deplores the worst natural disaster in a century in the European zone with the earthquake which struck Turkey and Syria causing the death of 35,000 people. Tuesday, February 14, a French field hospital settled in the region of Golbasi in Turkey to help the survivors.
As soon as he learned of the existence of a French field hospital, a young man rushed there to take his grandmother. “She can no longer resist the cold, she slept outside after the earthquake“, explains the young man. She complained of stomach pains was quickly taken care of in tents set up in less than 48 hours. AT Golbasiin a mountainous region of Turkey, the field hospital has been sized to reach up to 100 patients a day.
The nearby hospital is no longer operational
A woman already had a history medical, but Since the earthquake, his condition has deteriorated. An interpreter is permanently alongside the caregivers. “It reassures me to be cared for here, and then it’s warmer than in the village”says the patient. Since the earthquake, many survivors have been sleeping outside, without any tents. Some are injured but organisms are weakened. The nearby hospital is no longer operational due to problems with electricity, water and heating. The patients are therefore transferred by ambulance to the French field hospital.
