Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

The Chinese Government has been sending medical teams to Namibia since 1996. Zhejiang Province has been responsible for sending the medical teams. In 2014, the Chinese Government dispatched the 10th medical team to Namibia. The 10th medical team consisted of 4 members who were stationed at Katutura State Hospital (首都卡图图拉医院) in the capital city of Windhoek. The team, which primarily provided acupuncture and massage services, completed its term of service between 2014 and June 2016. The team reportedly treated about 600 patients per month, free of charge. This project is a subsidiary project of the umbrella Record ID#62439, which captures all medical teams sent to Katutura State Hospital since 1996.
