Chinese Government dispatches 23rd medical team to Mali Hospital

Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

Since 1968, Zhejiang Province has been sending medical teams to Mali every 2 years. In 2013, the Chinese Government dispatched the 23rd Chinese medical team to Mali. The 31-member team was stationed at the Mali Hospital (Hôpital du Mali or 3ème centre hospitalier de référence), which is located on the right bank of the Niger River in Yirimadio within Commune 6 and Bamako District. The team completed its term of service between July 21, 2013 and July 2015. In addition to the normal duties assumed by these medical teams in the past, this team helped in the fight against Ebola (October-December 2014). On July 20, 2015, the Malian government in Bamako acknowledged the outgoing medical team for their contributions to the medical cause of Mali.

Staff comments

- The 23rd medical team was the second Chinese medical team to be stationed at the newly-constructed Mali Hospital, which was financed with a Chinese Government grant (captured in Record ID#1505).
