On July 12, 2008, the 14th medical team of 46 members arrived in Cameroon. The team worked at Yaounde Gynaeco-Obstetric and Pediatric Hospital, Mbalmayo District Hospital, and Guider District Hospital for two years. The team consisted of 45 people, 7 of which chose to stay on as part of the 15th medical team. China has been sending medical teams to Cameroon every two years since 1975. Shanxi Province has been responsible for sending the teams.
